Plug and Play Setup Guide
1. Plug in the first Powerline Adapter (to your router/network)
a. Plug the Powerline Adapter into an
available power outlet.
b. Use the included cable to connect it to an
available network port on your router /
network.
2. Plug in the second Powerline Adapter (to your network device)
a. Plug the second Powerline Adapter into
an available power outlet.
b. Use the included cable to connect it to an
available network port on your network
device.
3. Check the Powerline LED (Light)
After attaching both Powerline Adapters, check that the Powerline LED is on for each
adapter to ensure that you have a solid connection.
If the Powerline LED is off, you will need to reset the security on each adapter or try
another power outlet.
Warning: Plugging the Powerline Adapter into a surge protector will degrade performance.
Plugging the Powerline Adapter on the same power outlet as a smartphone /
tablet charger will also degrade performance.
Securing your Powerline Network (optional)
After attaching both Powerline Adapters, you may set up security so other Powerline
adapters on the same electrical wiring system cannot connect to your network. This is most
common in apartment buildings or o ces.
a. On the first Powerline adapter, press
the Security button for 1-3 seconds.
The Power LED should begin to flash.
c. The Power and Powerline LED Indicator should turn solid indicating a secure connection.
