Terminology list
This manual will contain a number of technical terms. It is important to know what they mean before you begin
installing and configuring the router.
• Router A router is a network device required for sharing an Internet connection between multiple devices, such as computers but also other
devices such as a network printer, internet-enabled Blu-Ray player or network storage device / NAS. If you wish to use powerline adapters to
connect more than one device to the Internet, a router is also required.
• Network cable A network cable is used for connecting network devices such as computers, modems and routers to the powerline adapter or to
eachother.
• Powerline adapter This is the product you have just bought.
• Powerline security By default, your powerline network is not secured. This means that it is possible that others in the same building or buildings
nearby can use a powerline adapter to gain access to your network. Powerline security protects your network so that only authorized adapters
can gain access. Sweex recommends all users to secure their powerline network after installation. For more information please see the "Securing

    To build a powerline network, you need a minimum of two adapters. One adapter to create a powerline signal on your power lines, and one or more other adapters to pick up the signal and pass it to your computer or other network device. A single pair of powerline adapters is best viewed as a cable replacement, the adapters can be placed between for example, a router and a computer, and it will be as if the two devices are connected directly to eachother by a cable.
