• Ensure you have pressed the RESET/ENCRYPT button on both devices.
• Wait for about a minute while the devices set up a connection.
• If that does not work, try again with both devices connected to a power strip next to each other. If
they now connect, then the devices were not on the same electrical circuit before.

for 5 to 8 seconds (for models with separate buttons, press the ENCRYPT button for more than 10
seconds)., then try to reconnect, pressing the RESET/ENCRYPT button for 0.5 to 3 seconds on both
devices.
I pressed the RESET/ENCRYPT button for 5 to 8 seconds, but the HomePlug light is still on.
The HomePlug light is on, indicating it is still connected to another Powerline device. Try again, pressing
the RESET/ENCRYPT button for 5 to 8 seconds. For models with separate buttons, press the ENCRYPT
button for more than 10 seconds to release the connection.
