Planning your Powerline Network

With a PL-501and the other Powerline device installed, a network can be created over residential powerline of your house. PL-501can be connected to Ethernet switch, hub, and broadband router or directly connected to PC. If connect directly to a PC, of course, the PC must be equipped with an Ethernet card.

All the Powerline devices on the network must use the same password to communicate each other. This password can be configured through the Powerline Configuration utility that can be found in the CD-ROM. The default password of PLANET powerline devices is “HomePlugAV”. Thus, all the PLANET powerline devices can communicate each other without prior password configuration. Please refer to User’s Manual on detail of installing and using Powerline Configuration utility.
