NETGEAR PowerLine XWNB5602 Installation Manual page 5

Pairing the Powerline devices
1. Verify both of the Powerline devices are
plugged into AC wall outlets.
◦ Verify that the Power and Powerline
LEDs on each device are lit solid
green.
2. Press the Security button on one of the
Powerline devices for two seconds.
◦ The Power and Wireless/Ethernet
LEDs begin blinking after you
release the button.
◦ The Powerline device automatically
creates a new, randomly generated
encryption key that all other
Powerline devices on the network
will use.
3. Within two minutes, press the Security
button on the other Powerline device for
two seconds. You must press both
security buttons within two minutes.
◦ The Power and Wireless/Ethernet
LEDs begin blinking after you
release the button.
◦ This process allows the second
Powerline device to use the same
private encryption key as the first
device so that they can
communicate.
4. When the Power LEDs stop blinking and
the Powerline LEDs are lit solid green,
the two devices can communicate over
the Powerline network in a secure way.
◦ An amber or red Powerline LED
indicates a poor connection between
Powerline devices. Try moving the
Powerline devices to different AC
outlets.
