Add the adapter to a Powerline network that has not been secured:

1.Check to make sure that the Powerline devices you already use are compatible.

2.Plug the XAV2602 adapter into another electrical outlet. The XAV2602 will start to communicate with other Powerline devices (indicated by the linking Powerline LED).

3.Use Ethernet cables (one is included in the package) to connect your equipment to the Ethernet ports on the adapter.

Port 1 is for high-priority traffic used by devices such as gaming consoles.

Port 2 is for devices with lower-priority traffic.

You can use both ports or only one port.

4.NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network to protect your personal information and media from unwanted access. If you do not set up security on your network, anyone nearby with a Powerline network can potentially use his or her connection to gain access to your network and to information you send over the Internet. This is especially relevant in settings such as apartment buildings, office buildings, dorm rooms, and other densely populated areas.
