Chapter 6: Troubleshooting
If your powerline adapters have difficulty communicating with each other, try the
following procedures:
Try power cycling the unit by unplugging it from the electric outlet for 10 seconds and
plugging it in again.
Use a pin to hold the reset button down for 2 seconds on each unit you are trying to
connect. The units will reset and attempt to establish a connection using factory default
settings.
Try plugging the powerline adapter into an adjacent electric outlet.
Powerline adapters work better when plugged directly into an electric outlet. Using a
power strip or surge protector may degrade network performance or completely block
network signals.
This powerline adapter should not be used on GFI protected electric outlets, as some
outlets will filter out the powerline signal.
This powerline adapter should not be used in areas with excessive heat.
Certain florescent or incandescent lights are noise sources that can degrade
performance.
If your building has more than one circuit breaker box, your powerline adapters may not
be able to establish a connection across different circuit breaker boxes. In such cases, try
establishing a connection across different circuit breaker boxes by linking two powerline
adapters together with an Ethernet cable.

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
FCC Caution
This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the authority to operate equipment.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure set forth for an uncontrolled environment. In order to avoid
the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall not be
less than 2.5cm (1 inch) during normal operation.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Exposure Requirements
SAR compliance has been established in the laptop computer(s) configurations with PCMCIA slot on the side near the
center, as tested in the application for certification, and can be used in laptop computer(s) with substantially similar
physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. Use in other devices such as PDAs or lap
pads is not authorized. This transmitter is restricted for use with the specific antenna tested in the application for
certification. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
R&TTE Compliance Statement
This equipment complies with all the requirements of DIRECTIVE 1999/5/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND
THE COUNCIL of March 9, 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunication terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity (R&TTE). The R&TTE Directive repeals and replaces in the directive 98/13/EEC
(Telecommunications Terminal Equipment and Satellite Earth Station Equipment) As of April 8, 2000.
Safety
This equipment is designed with the utmost care for the safety of those who install and use it. However, special
attention must be paid to the dangers of electric shock and static electricity when working with electrical equipment.
All guidelines of this and of the computer manufacture must therefore be allowed at all times to ensure the safe use
