Just to check does it work with the devolo adapters switched off? (And in range
of the main router of course). You could try speaking to devolo support if
their adapters seem to be causing the issue.

Well, it was shortlived.
Firmware updated and it seemed to be ok for a day, but this weekend, all iOS
devices try to connect and are just thrown off straight away. As I write
though, my Macbook connects perfectly and at full signal strength and full
speed.
Most odd, no?
The lights on the Devolo don't indicate any problems, similarly the Macbook
connection.
It was working so very well at out previous house, but now, iOS devices just
won't connect consistently to it.
I'm stumped!?
