If the Power LED still does not come on, and you have confirmed the power outlet is live, you
have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.
HomePlug Light Not On
If the power light is on but the HomePlug light is not, check the following:
• Make sure that power is being provided to more than one PowerLine device. Another
PowerLine device must be installed for successful communication across the PowerLine.
• Verify that the network password is the same on all devices in the PowerLine network.
Ethernet Light is Off
• Make sure that the Ethernet cable is plugged in properly at both ends.
• Be sure that you are using the correct cable on the router that the first PowerLine adapter is
connected to. When connecting the router's Internet port to a cable or DSL modem, use the
cable that was supplied with the cable or DSL modem. This cable could be a standard straight-
through Ethernet cable or an Ethernet crossover cable.
• On the attached Ethernet device or network adapter card, check that the Link light is on.
