Chapter 2: Product Installation

At factory default settings, a pair of TPL-307E 200Mbps Powerline AV adapters with Bonus Outlet (or TPL-307E2K) can be installed into any room in your home or small office with a wall power outlet, without the need for additional software or configuration. To create a simple powerline network using a pair TPL-307E powerline adapters, simply plug one of your TPL-307E adapters into a wall power outlet in one room and plug the other TPL-307E adapter into an available wall power outlet in another room to establish connectivity between the two rooms.

In order to share Internet connectivity through your powerline adapters, it is ideal to install at least one powerline adapter in the room where your modem and router are located and connect the powerline adapter to one of your router’s LAN ports via Ethernet. Any additional powerline adapters that are installed and connected in other rooms will then share Internet connectivity through your router. Once the powerline adapters are connected to each other through the electrical system, any additional devices such as computers or network appliances (e.g. Game Console, Blu-ray player, IP Set Top Box, network enabled TV, etc.) connected to any of your powerline adapters via Ethernet can then communicate to each other as well as share Internet connectivity through your router.

The example diagram shows a typical powerline network configuration in a home environment with 3 powerline adapters installed in different rooms. The orange line represents the powerline connectivity established through your home’s electric- al system and the blue lines represent Cat. 5, 5e, 6 Ethernet connectivity to your network enabled appliances such as a computer, router, or IP set top box connected to your television.
