Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
1. Will HomePlug work in my house or apartment?
If the house or apartment was built under U.S. building standards using copper wiring, then it will work.
2.What types of security problems will I be facing?
If your house is on the same power grid as your neighbor, then there is a potential for a hacker to get in through your neighbor's house. However, this is easily remedied by activating the encryption key on the HomePlug device.
3.Will HomePlug work with Mac?
There is currently no software that supports Macs. However, the HomePlug Ethernet Bridge will work with Mac when used as a bridge. Also, by installing Virtual PC software on a Mac, you will be able to install the windows based software under Virtual PC and have this Mac communicate with other PCs on HomePlug network.
