More: To add additional powerline adapters and powerline Wi-Fi extenders with the default settings, simply plug them into the wall sockets on the same electrical circuit.

Clone Your Router's Wi-Fi Settings to the Extender (Recommended)
If your router supports WPS, you can continue with the steps below to clone its current Wi-Fi settings to the extender.
Tips: We recommend that you plug in the extender near your router for Wi-Fi cloning.
Note: If the Wi-Fi LED still blinks slowly for longer than 30 seconds, unplug the extender and plug it back in, then try again. Or use "Customize the Extender's Wi-Fi Settings" on the back instead.
You can create or join a secure powerline network using the Pair button on two devices at a time. The powerline network can support up to 16 powerline devices.
Tips: We recommend that you plug in the powerline devices near each other when pairing.
