@Jasonbonnie assuming other devices are connecting properly it is likely to be an issue with the laptop or the connection.

 

If I am correct that you are using a pair of powerline adapters and your mains wiring for the connection I would check these first. Powerline can lose connection so I would do a reset of the system following the manufaturers instructions and ideally test the connection with another device if possible. It is possible but less likely that it is a dodgy cable but the next most likely cause is yout laptop test that by connecting it directly to the hub.
