Secure Your Powerline Network

A Powerline network forms when at least two compatible Powerline devices communicate. After the Powerline network is up and running, you can use the Security buttons on the adapters to add encryption to your Powerline network.

CAUTION: Do not press the Security button until each adapter has powered up and its Power LED is solid green. Pressing this button too soon can temporarily disable Powerline communication. If this occurs, use the Factory Reset button to return the Powerline adapter to its factory default settings.

To secure your Powerline network:

1.Make sure the Power LED is solid green. If it is amber, connect a device to one of the Ethernet ports so the adapter exits power saving mode.

2.On the first Powerline adapter, press its Security button for 2 seconds and release the button. The Power LED blinks green while the adapter is setting up security.

3.Within 2 minutes, go to the next Powerline adapter and press its Security button for 2 seconds and release the button.

After security is set, the Power LED turns solid green. The adapter can communicate over the network. The Powerline LED is blinking or solid.
