For my house there is apparently enough 5Ghz interference to render the wifi connection unstable...and I often found my phantoms encountering audible connectivity issues whenever it tried to switch between wifi to PLC and back. After forcing an ethernet connection via external PLC adapter, it bypasses the use of Wifi as I wasn't able to find a way to force the use of the onboard PLC only (disable wifi). So far it's working good this way.
If the external PLC adapters can communicate, it is highly likely that the Dialog/Phantoms communicate between the EXACT SAME power outlets via PLC. If I remember correctly, PLC only works between outlets that are on the same circuit.
