Congratulations! Thank you for choosing the Corinex Powerline Router. The Router allows you to set up a home or small business network to share your high-speed Internet connection using either Ethernet cabling or Powerline connection.

1.1 Powerline Routing Overview

The Corinex Powerline Router provides a convenient Internet access and distribution capability for broadband service providers and users alike, using any incoming high speed signal, whether by A/DSL, cable, satellite or fiber optics as access and the existing electrical wires as distribution media.

This product enables multiple users in small to medium size offices and homes to share one broadband account and experience a high speed networking capability for data, voice, audio and video, without pulling new wires. The embedded Network Address Translation (NAT) feature enables the usage of a private set of IP addresses, which the Router

translates into a single public IP address. The Router can also act as a DHCP 5 server by automatically allocating a dynamic IP address to each piece of equipment, which connects by a communications port, like Ethernet, USB,

PCI or 802.11b to the network. The Router has three LAN, one WAN 10/

100M Ethernet and one powerline port. The Router can act as the "bridge" between the access side of the network and its specific wire requirements and the distribution side of the network, which uses the existing electrical wires to move the signals to every electrical outlet and makes those signals available to wired or portable devices. The Corinex Powerline Router supports the entirely new Corinex Powerline and CableLAN product family, which consists of:

Corinex Powerline Ethernet Adapter

Corinex Powerline USB Adapter

Corinex Ethernet Wall Mount

Corinex CableLAN Adapter

Corinex Wireless to Powerline Access Point

The Router‘s connection to the electrical wires (powerline) is based upon the HomePlug 1.0.1 industry standard. This standard warrants a robust and reliable performance for all devices that have passed the HomePlug certification test and are connected to the network. The reliability is made
