Hello mate,i have been using the same homeplugs for a while now and they work great.Did you pair them up by putting them side by side and pressing config.and obviously you have one direct attached to router then one with each solo.

Comtrend are fantastic m8, use them on my Vu duo, have you tried upgrading the firmware on them ?

the one solo downstairs is on a cat 5 yes both have been paired i just didnt fancy running cat 5 cable up the stairs im sure it must be a problem with the virgin superhub but its beyond me all i get on the plug upstairs is no conectivity
