Starting up a new devolo Magic PLC network
devolo Magic adapters that are in the factory de-
fault condition, i.e. have been recently purchased
or successfully reset (see Chapter 2.2.5 Reset/Re-
start), automatically start to attempt to pair
(establish a PLC connection) with another
devolo Magic adapter when reconnected to the
mains supply.
After plugging the devolo Magic adapters into
available power sockets, a new devolo Magic net-
work is established automatically within 3 minutes.
You can find detailed information about in-
stalling devolo Magic adapters in Chapter

In order to use a new devolo Magic 2 LAN triple in
your devolo Magic network, first you have to
connect it to your existing devolo Magic adapters
devices as a network. This is accomplished by using
a shared PLC password.
