Can't connect to internet - help!

How old are the homeplugs? You could return them, get a refund and then get some with a plug socket on them?

The manual says they have to be directly connected to the wall, not an extension lead. They have a plug socket on them, but obviously this won't affect it.

See, I've only got one wall socket in the room where this computer and the broadband (as well as many other things) are so everything in this room has to be on an extension lead.

So they're like that with the socket on them to plug other stuff into?

These are what Corfate is talking about,

if you do have this type, plug it into the wall socket then plug your extension into the pass through socket.
