Devolo Home Control First Steps

Bandwith optimisation
If you would like to use the Home Control Central Unit as a dLAN adapter, we recommend the following
"connection rules" for an improved network transfer performance:
쎲 Plug the Home Control Central Unit directly into a wall socket.
쎲
Avoid using a power strip. This may impair the transmission of the dLAN signals.
쎲 If there are several sockets in the wall directly next to each other, they behave like a power strip. Individual-
sockets are optimal.
