This is the main disadvantage of Power-line devices.
1. Well firstly you need to make sure that the activity lights are ON on both the Power line adapters.
2. Don't use any Surge Protector or Extension cable, just directly to the wall.
3. Try in the same room first.
4. Power line devices works well where wall sockets are interlinked with common wiring as it is the mode of data transfer.
You can just power cycle the device, there is nothing much you can do about this.
If its new device, get it replaced
Verify that your laptop can connect to the D-Link. Then on the laptop, in the search window enter CMD. In that window enter " ping 8.8.8.8" If you get a response - actually 5, then your likely issue on the D-Link is DHCP settings. Enter "close" to close the black CMD screen.
A response proves that you have Internet access but only to numeric addresses. Use the supplied disk or instruction manual to log into the D-Link and update the settings. If you get no response, go through the full setup procedure on the D-Link.

I would suggest downloading and updating the firmware for the device(s). Also, because it is expanding the wireless reach of your router via electrical wiring, any interference may inhibit the correct functioning of the system. I would suggest you try connecting to your wireless without the powerlines active to ensure it is not a faulty router or wireless card. If it still does not work with the powerlines deactivated, you may need to look into getting a new router or wireless adapter.
This can occur when the wireless adapter in the computer has trouble connecting to the wireless router. It
may not get an IP address from the router or the wireless adapter
encryption setting didn't get an the encryption authentication from the
router. In this case right click on the wireless adapter on the Task
bar and click Repair. This will make the router re-issue an IP address
and authenticate the adapter's encryption setting.
