Use Your Powerline Adapter
2. 2. Extend Your Wired Network by Plug & Play
I want to:
Use two powerline adapters to set up a new powerline network in my house.
For example, I have a router in my house, but there are not enough LAN ports for all my
wired devices. I don’t want complex and expensive cabling. People told me that I can
solve this problem with two powerline adapters.
Note: G.hn powerline devices are not compatible with Homeplug AV/AV2 powerline
devices.
How can I do that?
1. Connect one of the powerline adapters to an available LAN port of the router using
an Ethernet cable.
2. Plug the powerline adapter into a wall outlet.
3. Plug the other powerline adapter into a wall outlet on the same electrical circuit at
the place you want internet. Wait until the powerline LED
turns solid green.
Note: If the Powerline LED does not turn solid green, refer to FAQ-Q2 for instructions.
4. Connect your wired device, such as a computer or game console, to the powerline
adapter via an Ethernet cable.
