In order to use a new devolo Magic 2 LAN

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 password, which can be assigned in va-
rious ways:
b Using devolo Cockpit or the
devolo Home Netwok App (see Chapter 3.4
Installation of devolo software)
b Using the web interface (see Chapter 4.2.2
Powerline)
b Using the PLC/reset button as described
below.
1 To do so, plug the new devolo Magic adapter
into an available power socket and, for appro-
ximately 1 second, press the PLC/reset button
on a devolo Magic adapter in your existing
devolo Magic network.
