Q. Can I move my EC14H adapter once I have installed it
in one location?
A. Yes. You can unplug your EC14H adapter and the attached
Ethernet device that are using and move them to the loca-
tion you want, where still should be within the coverage of
your powerline network. Your EC14H adapter will put
into operation "automatically" as soon as it is plugged back
into outlet, and no settings will be lost.
Q. Can my neighbors receive my powerline transmission
data?
A. To prevent from this interception, MSI EC14H adapter is
deployed with 56-bit DES (Data Encryption Standard) for
network security. Using the HomePlug Converter Utility
provided in software CD, you can encrypt all data over
powerline. This will only allow devices with the same Net
work Password being able to receive information.
Q. Does HomePlug adapter performance changes as ap-
pliances switch on or off?
A. Along with an appliance switching on or off, the basic char-
acteristics of the electrical wiring changes. In short-range,
these changes rarely influence on the performance of
HomePlug adapters.
Q. Is my Powerline network compatible with my other
home network, including phone line, wireless (IEEE
802.11), and wired (IEEE 802.3)?
A. Yes. Powerline network could co-exist with other home
networking technologies and does not cause any interfer-
ence one another. Powerline network is a logical choice to
extend your existing home network through wall outlets
that are located on nearly every wall of a home.
