Powerline Setup through the Ethernet Interface
4.Click Next again to program the Corinex Powerline Router with the new encryption key. This will take a few seconds. The next screen will look similar to the following screen. The white box will list the MAC addresses of all other installed powerline devices on the network that are programmed with your chosen network password. If no other devices have been programmed, the list will be empty. If you use also other than Corinex HomePlug certified devices in the network, these devices may be set at the default status. This default setting makes sure that HomePlug devices find each other in a network and connect and communicate automatically with each other. In order to generate your private and secure network, all HomePlug certified devices in the network must be set to the same network encryption key, either at the default key "HomePlug" or your own selection.

The adapter with the MAC address 00:0B:C2:00:0F:93 acts as local device in the network and identifies the devices shown under Devices Address in the window as belonging to the network. The function and performance of the devices between the local device / adapter 00:0B:C2:00:0F:93 and the devices identified in the network is displayed in the window under Connection Quality.
5.All devices in your network must be programmed with the same network encryption key. Run this utility on all computers with a powerline networking device attached. If you have a powerline device that is not normally connected to a computer, it must first be connected to a computer and set up with a network encryption key.
