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,a wall in my house is thick enough to influence the signals, but I want to
bring internet to the room upstairs, to basement, garage, or the far corner of my house.
I don’t want complex and expensive cabling. People told me that I can solve these
problems with two powerline adapters.
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 on.
Note: If the Powerline LED does not turn on, 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.
