CHAPTER 6 Understanding the Information in the SMC EZ Configuration Utility
When you launch the EZ Configuration utility it will automatically scan your Powerline network for all the available Powerline adapters. If a new Powerline device is added to your network it will automatically show up in the utility.
Device List
The Powerline adapters are displayed in the [Device List] window. The default device name is the Model number of the Powerline adapter.
There will be two types of devices displayed in your device list:
Local Device | This is the Powerline device that is connected to the PC that you are using or |
| if you are connect to a router and the Powerline device is connected to. |
| The local device will not have a Rate associated to it or require you to enter a |
| device password to change the Network Password. |
|
|
Remote Device | These are Powerline adapters that are connected to other devices in your |
| house, such as a PC. |
| These devices will show you the Rate they are linked up at. If you wish to |
| change the Network Password on these units, then you will have to enter the |
| Device Password. |
