Unplug the Powerline Adapters and then connect them to your Ethernet devices using the Ethernet cables from the product
package. After connecting the Ethernet cable, plug the Adapters directly to a wall outlet.
An Ethernet-enabled device can be a router, computer, hub, gaming console, IP phone, network printer, or IP TV set-top box.
Note:
Powerlines work best when connected directly to a wall socket. Avoid plugging it to a power strip or power extension. Other electrical devices in the power strip produce
electrical noise that may affect the performance of the Adapter.
