Here we take TL-PA4010 as an example.

As to some old versions, like TL-PA211 V1, TL-PA210 V1, and TL-PA201, When installing the management utility, you will see a picture shown as the below, please open Main tab--click on Reset to reset your device.
Situation 2:
On the wireless PLC adapters, please use a pin to press and hold this Reset button for approximately 10 seconds,then the device will restore to factory defaults.
Note: when the PLC adapters are successfully reset to factory defaults, the network name of each one is the default “Homeplug AV”. With the same network name, all the PLC adapters connect to each other automatically so there is no need pressing the pair button to link them.
