    Yes, they have to be plugged directly into the socket, thats why I bought comtrend ones with the plug on top.

    I have heard that it could depend on what else is connected to the extension. 1 guy had problems getting anything to work on his network using homeplugs, it turned out a small power adapter that ran a halogen desk lamp was the problem, once it was unplugged from the extension, his problems vanished.
