Enter Password
The password is necessary to activate security in the Powerline network and to
control all HomePlug AV devices from one computer. To activate security you
need to create a so-called "private network" by changing the private network
name in all HomePlug AV devices. This will only be possible after entering the
password for all these devices.
The procedure for setting the password of the device (required when creating a
private network) is as follows:
Click the device name to select the device in the lower panel.
Click Enter Password. A dialog box appears, showing the device name,
MAC address and a field to enter the password. See Figure 5-2.
