Thank you for purchasing the Powerline AV Networking Adapter (the
Adapter). Most people don’t enjoy buying long and expensive Ethernet
cables or pulling the cables from one place to another, but the Adapter
offers one of the easiest ways to enjoy home or small-business
networking. Users can now experience a total network solution with
the Adapter. The Powerline AV Networking Adapter operates on the
®
HomePlug Powerline Specification 2.0 standard, providing up to
200Mbps* bandwidth over home AC wiring. Since the home power
lines are the most pervasive medium in households with multiple
outlets in every room, the Adapter allows multiple home desktop and
notebook computers to be networked to share an Internet connection,
printers, and files, and play games without any additional wiring.
The advanced signal processing is capable of maintaining coverage
throughout the entire house, even across different phase rings.
The installation of the Adapter only requires that a 10/100Mbps
network adapter is installed on the computers. This makes the
Powerline AV Networking Adapter compatible with any device,
including Mac, Windows, and UNIX machines.
For security, all HomePlug devices are equipped with 128-bit AES
encryption. The private home power grid plus encryption makes
HomePlug significantly more secure than competing technologies.
The Powerline AV Networking Adapter provides the best solution for
no-new-wires home networking. With easy plug-and-play installation,
and the reliability of HomePlug Ethernet’s products, the Powerline AV
Networking Adapter is the best solution for high-speed networking.

Installing and Setting Up the Adapters
Overview
Installation of the Powerline AV Networking Adapter takes only seconds

plug the units directly into any available wall outlet and connect to any
device with an Ethernet port. Users have the option to randomly change
the security password for their powerline network.
Hardware Setup
1. Plug your network cable into the computer’s RJ45 network adapter port.
2. Plug the other end of your network cable into the RJ45 port located at the
back of the Adapter.
3. Plug the power cable or wall adapter into the power connector at the back of
the Adapter.
4. Insert the power plug of your power cable or wall adapter directly into a
power outlet in the wall.

have to load the new password before it can join the network.
2. Press the “Encryption” button on an encrypted unit for more than 0.5
seconds, but less than three seconds.
3. Within two minutes, press the “Encryption” button on the new unit for more
than 0.5 seconds, but less than three seconds.
