GFCI outlet and non-GFCI outlet on same wall

I'm trying to troubleshoot why a GFCI outlet is tripping all the time. The only thing plugged in is a two-prong adapter (no ground) for a wireless router. The room is a "storage" room with no water egress or ingress. The wall is shared with a shower room on the other side but there are no outlets there. However, the wall where the GFCI outlet is located has another outlet a few feet away and it's not connected to the GFCI outlet. So my question is: Why would a wall have two independent outlets one of which is GFCI? submitted by /u/ravaturnoCAD [link] [comments]
