As you have two Netgear devices at your place first one is netgear wn2500rp extender and second is powerline adapter pwl 1000, I will describe setup of both the devices one by one . First let us discuss about powerline adapter setup.
———————————————————————————————————————————————
TO SETUP YOUR POWER LINE ADAPTER PWL 1000 YOU NEED TO FOLLOW THESE STEPS:-
1. Plug PWL 1000 adapter into a power outlet near your router.
2. Use the supplied gray Ethernet cable to connect from the PWL 1000 adapter to a LAN port
on your router so that the Power line network can gain access to the Internet. The Power
and Ethernet LEDs on the Power line adapter should turn on.
3. you need to wait for at least 1 minute here and after that you can check the lights on your
adapter i.e power light , ethernet light , power line light.
There is a different way as well (by wps method)
Use WPS to Connect to Your Network
To automatically connect to the PowerLINE access point using a WPS button:
1. Press and hold the WPS button on the PowerLINE access point for
two seconds and release it. The WiFi LED starts to blink.
2. Press the WPS button on your WiFi device for two seconds and
release it.
When the WiFi LED stops blinking, your WiFi device is automatically
connected to the Power LINE access point and you can surf the web.
later on you can set security and customize the settings of your device as well .
if problem still persists you can reset your device and re setup the device.
