with the XAV2602.
2. Plug the Powerline AV+ 200-compatible adapter into an electrical
outlet, and plug the XAV2602 adapter into another electrical

The Powerline LED turns on for each Powerline adapter when they
detect each other. The devices automatically form a Powerline
network.
Add the adapter to a secure Powerline network:
Your Powerline network is already secured if you used the Security
button or the Powerline Utility to set up security.
1. Make sure that the Powerline devices you already use are
compatible to the XAV2602. Plug the XAV2602 into another
electrical outlet.
2. Press the Security button on one of your existing Powerline
adapters for 2 seconds and release the button. Then within 2
minutes, press the Security button on the XAV2602 for 2 seconds
and release the button. The Power LED on the XAV2602 starts to
blink as security is setting up.

Add the adapter to a Powerline network that has not been
secured:
1. Check to make sure that the Powerline devices you already use
are compatible.
2. Plug the XAV2602 adapter into another electrical outlet. The
XAV2602 will start to communicate with other Powerline devices
(indicated by the linking Powerline LED).
3. Use Ethernet cables (one is included in the package) to connect
your equipment to the Ethernet ports on the adapter.

Port 1 is for high-priority traffic used by devices such as
gaming consoles.

Port 2 is for devices with lower-priority traffic.
You can use both ports or only one port.
4. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network
to protect your personal information and media from unwanted
access. If you do not set up security on your network, anyone
nearby with a Powerline network can potentially use his or her
connection to gain access to your network and to information you
send over the Internet. This is especially relevant in settings such
as apartment buildings, office buildings, dorm rooms, and other
densely populated areas.

Secure Your Powerline Network
A Powerline network forms when at least two compatible Powerline
devices communicate. After the Powerline network is up and running,
you can use the Security buttons on the adapters to add encryption to
your Powerline network.
CAUTION: Do not press the Security button until each adapter has
powered up and its Power LED is solid green. Pressing this
button too soon can temporarily disable Powerline
communication. If this occurs, use the Factory Reset button
to return the Powerline adapter to its factory default settings.
To secure your Powerline network:
1. Make sure the Power LED is solid green. If it is amber, connect
a device to one of the Ethernet ports so the adapter exits power
saving mode.
2. On the first Powerline adapter, press its Security button for 2
seconds and release the button. The Power LED blinks green
while the adapter is setting up security.
3. Within 2 minutes, go to the next Powerline adapter and press its
Security button for 2 seconds and release the button.
After security is set, the Power LED turns solid green. The
adapter can communicate over the network. The Powerline LED
is blinking or solid.
