3.2.3 "Privacy" tab

"SAGEM F@st PLUG" helps you to set up a network using the "Power Line" technology with
data encryption. With it you can add the required adapters to your network. You can configure
all the "Power Line" adapters on the network centrally, that is from a single workstation. For
encryption, you need the adapters' security IDs. You must also configure a network password
in order to protect your network. Below is a description of how to configure the network.
Be sure to have close to hand the adapter passwords (security ID) you have
noted down. The configuration assistant needs them to configure the network.
!
The password (security ID) appears on the rear panel of each adapter.
The "Power Line" adapter directly connected to your computer is automatically
detected and configured.
The Privacy tab lets you:
•
manage your local network and ensure the privacy of the data you send.
•
configure the network name used to encrypt the data sent over your local area network.
Notes:
1) Adapters supplied in packs of two have a network name preconfigured at the factory, so
you do not need to change it.
2) Adapters supplied in packs of one have a universal, public network name (HomePlug). It
is therefore advisable to change it to protect your network and protect you from any
hacking. Nevertheless, you can use your adapters without protection; this is the default
operating mode.
3) You must assign the same network password to all the adapters belonging to the same
network.
