Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the LINDY 85Mbps HomePlug Powerline Ethernet Bridge. HomePlug technology makes setting up a home or small office network quick and easy!

HomePlug allows you to create a network using the standard electrical mains power lines in your home or workplace. The LINDY HomePlug Ethernet Bridge plugs into your computer’s Ethernet port and then into a mains socket. The computer data is converted into a signal that can be carried over the mains wiring without interfering with the ordinary current travelling through the wire.

The HomePlug Ethernet Bridge can be plugged into any device with a 10/100 RJ-45 Ethernet port, including PCs, Macs, X-Boxes, hubs, routers, switches etc., without the need to install any special software. However, the device to which the HomePlug Ethernet Bridge is connected must be configured to access your network.
