Hi!
Is there anybody who can advise on how to get ethernet cable networking
via powerline plug running? I have Susue 10.2, NiC works fine with
direct network cable connection to the router. Now replacing link with
Acer Homeplug - no success. Direct cable - ping to router responds -
plug in the powerline : Ping is no longer successful - replug the long
cable - ping is successful.
Do I need to set up any other item such as bridge or other setup?

(PS it all works fine with Win98 and XP)
I think it is worth to report a bug.
BTW, what is the model and manufacturer of the adapter, so that I can look at.
The Homeplug is an ACER Homeplug, apparently fully 1.0.1 compatible. The
network card is an old model 3Com 3c900B-TPO Etherlink Cyclone rev 04
card. It loads the 3c59x module, which as far as I can check from Linux
books is correct.
Had a google search on the subject and found all matter of things on
'powerline bridgees', and a tool plconfig. But I am not so sure that
this is what is needed. Also, company develo have a softwar efor Linux
to set up the adapter. But then I have set it up already using my
Windows machine, so the adapter should be fine? Afterall how would a
hardware router know anything about a homeplug...
Thanks for the support!
