Literally tried everything to solve this but nothing has worked. The computer just tell me it's an unidentified network and when i troubleshoot it it's says it doesn't have a valid IP configuration. Please someone help me solve this.

It might be difficult to pinpoint the exact problem, but I'd suggest beginning with the adapters themselves. It could be a poor quality connection causing an intermittent loss of service. Have you tried resetting (power cycling) the adapters only to see if that fixes the problem? Are the adapters plugged directly into the wall outlet and not through a surge protector or power strip? It also could be a problem with an electrically noisy...

Is the "TPlink ethernet plug" a powerline adapter? Can you provide the model number?

If it is a powerline adapter, is the link light indicating a good connection with the other adapter?

Yeh its the TP-LINK AV600 and the light is always either steady green or flashing green. It works for long periods of time then my computer says it's an unidentified network with no internet. Sometimes restarting the pc works but not every time. It keeps happening and has a become a nuisance.

It also could be a problem with an electrically noisy appliance or fluorescent light for example.
