Page 15: How The Powerline Adapter Fits Into Your Network
PowerLINE How the PowerLINE Adapter Fits Into Your Network You can use one or more PowerLINE adapters to extend Internet access throughout your home. A PowerLINE network consists of two or more compatible PowerLINE devices that communicate with each other using your electrical power lines. One of the PowerLINE devices is connected with an Ethernet cable to your router so that the PowerLINE network is linked to your local area network (LAN). -
Page 16: Set Up A New Powerline Network
PowerLINE For best performance, follow these guidelines when you plan the location of your PowerLINE devices: • Use an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch to avoid accidentally turning off the power to the outlet. • Avoid plugging PowerLINE products into electrical outlets that are located near appliances that consume a lot of power, such as washers, dryers, or refrigerators. - Page 17 PowerLINE Connect the device to the LAN port on your router or gateway using an Ethernet cable. Plug the second PowerLINE device into a wall outlet where you want to add Internet access. Use the Ethernet cable that came with your adapter to connect the PowerLINE device to an Ethernet port on a computer, game console, Blu-ray player, or other peripheral device.
