Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your STRONG Powerline Kit, consider the following maintenance tips:

Cleaning: Gently wipe the adapters with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
Ventilation: Ensure the adapters are plugged into outlets that allow for proper airflow around the device. Do not cover the ventilation slots.
Direct Outlet Connection: For best performance, plug the Powerline adapters directly into a wall outlet. Avoid using power strips, extension cords, or surge protectors, as these can interfere with Powerline signal quality.
Firmware Updates: Periodically check the Strong official website for any available firmware updates for your model. Updates can improve performance and stability.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Powerline Kit, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
No Powerline connection (Powerline LED is off)	Adapters are not on the same electrical circuit, or signal interference.	Ensure both adapters are plugged directly into wall outlets. Try plugging adapters into different outlets within the same room or circuit. Avoid plugging into power strips or surge protectors. Reset both adapters by pressing the PAIR/RST button for 6 seconds until all LEDs blink, then re-pair them.
Slow network speed	Electrical interference, distance, or network congestion.	Move adapters closer if possible. Ensure no high-power appliances (e.g., washing machines, refrigerators) are on the same circuit. Check your internet service provider's speed.
No internet access on connected device	Ethernet cable issue, router problem, or adapter not receiving internet.	Verify the Ethernet cable connection between the adapter and your device. Check if your router/modem is working correctly. Ensure the first Powerline adapter is properly connected to your router and has internet access.
