Secure Your Powerline Network by Pairing

All powerline adapters share some common factory settings, and can communicate
with one another. If you want your powerline adapters to communicate only with your
own powerline adapters, you should pair them. Thus a secured powerline network is
formed and other powerline adapters can no longer join your powerline network without
being paired.
Note: You can only pair two devices at a time.
