3. Connect the device to the LAN port on your router or gateway using an Ethernet cable.
4. Plug the second PowerLINE device into a wall outlet where you want to add Internet access.
5. Use the Ethernet cable that came with your adapter to connect the PowerLINE device to an Ethernet
port on a computer, game console, Blu-ray player, or other peripheral device.
6. Wait until the Pick A Plug LEDs are lit.
7. To use a private encryption key, press the Security button on one of the adapters for two seconds, and
then press the Security button on the other adapter for two seconds.
Both buttons must be pressed within two minutes.
WARNING:
Do not press the Security button on the PowerLINE adapter until installation
is complete and the adapters are communicating with each other (indicated
by the blinking Power LED). 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.
The Security button does not work in power saving mode.Note
8. Wait for the PowerLINE network to recognize each PowerLINE device.
This process could take as little as 5 seconds or up to 80 seconds.
When the Power LEDs stop blinking, the process is complete. If the Pick A Plug LEDs are green or
amber, the devices are successfully connected to the PowerLINE network. A red Pick A Plug LED
indicates a slow link rate. In this case, move the PowerLINE device to another electrical outlet with a
faster connection.
9. If you are installing additional adapters, repeat Step 7 with one of the secure adapters and one of the
adapters that is not yet secured.
