PowerLine Ethernet Bridge

3. Plug the Bridge into an electrical outlet.

IMPORTANT: Because the Bridge sends data over the power lines of your house, plug the Bridge directly into an electrical outlet. Do not plug the device into a UPS or power strip with surge protection. The Bridge has its own power filter for protection against surges.

The installation of the Bridge is complete.

If you want to configure the Bridge, proceed to “Chapter 6: Using the PowerLine Configuration Utility.”

Connecting to a Router

If you want to connect the Bridge to a router, then proceed to the next section, “Connecting to a Router.”

If you want to share high-speed Internet access across a powerline network, then you can choose to connect the Bridge to a router.

Follow these instructions:

Disconnect the network cable from the PC, and connect it to the uplink port of the router. If you only have a LAN port available on the router, then use a crossover Category 5 Ethernet network cable to connect the Bridge to the router. The installation of the Bridge is complete.
