        We live in a rural area and our power is reliable but I do get

        become unpaired. This morning I reset them and paired them hear
        at my computer where it is convent to do. put the second one
        downstairs where the A/P is and everything was restored. We cut
        the power at the circuit breaker while doing some electrical
        work and when we switched it back on the system was unpaired
        again. That explains the intermittent problem we are having with
        the internet connection, most likely due to minor glitches in
        power I suspect.
        

      That is strange.  I have TP-Link ethernet over power adapters
      (can't check the model right now) and they don't have that
      problem.  I can unplug them and move them around and they always
      pair up again as soon as they're plugged in.

    Yes I was surprises too. I have paired them plugged into the same
    outlet strip, one I have for convenience in testing things, then
    carry it downstairs and it works \, after rebooting the AP. I
    rebooted the last time I did it anyway, maybe it would have worked
    given more time.

    
    I suspected a UPS might cause problems but was nit certain, there
    may be line noise  produced when it switches, if that's the sort of
    thing that is causing my problem.

    
    These look like large white wall warts with three status lamps on
    the right side and a reset/pair button there also, attractive 
    design I suppose, suspect they are common model. I need to try their
    tech support, always a last resort from my experience but maybe they
    are better than some of the others I've tried ...
