Hi, Pat. This week I've had trouble with my desktop. Every time I restart it, I can't get internet. It displays a connection to <network name> plus an extra code (like home network 4), but it should only show <home network>. I have to restart the router or modem several times before it works properly on <home network>, not just <home network>. I'm using Windows 10, connected via Ethernet with a powerline adapter. I've updated the router's firmware and reset the powerline setup already. If anyone knows how to fix this, any tips would be great. Thanks!

I believe it's important to check for the exact issue without the powerline kit to confirm it's not a problem there.
