TPLink Powerline Adapter loosing connection

This is a common problem when these types of Powerline Adapters switch to the power-savings mode. There are tools where the power-savings mode can be disabled. They prevent the device from switching into power-savings mode, which causes the loss of the network connection.

Download one of those tools (http://digiex.net/downloads/download-center-2-0/drivers/14554-tp-link-ho..., http://forum.tp-link.com/showthread.php?3666-how-to-solve-some-powerline...), one of them should be able to detect your device when connected via an ethernet cable, depending on your specific model of the TPLink Powerline adapter. When detected, disable the power savings mode with the tool for all your devices. The loss of your connection should not occur anymore.
