HomePlug Powerline
HomePlug powerline is an excellent solution that can be used to extend your network. In the home or small office
building, use HomePlug Ethernet Bridge Adapters to link multiple locations without the need to run Ethernet cable.
Combined with a broadband DSL/Cable connection, every room with electrical power outlets will have easy access
to high-speed Internet connection.
Introduction
200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge allows you to connect any device which has an Ethernet port to a Power-
line network. In operation, the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge is completely transparent, and simply
passes data between the Ethernet port and the Powerline network. The Powerline data transfer rate can be
reached up to 200Mbps. Any device may be connected to the 200Mbps HomePlug Ethernet Bridge’s Ethernet port,
but a Windows PC must be used for configuration.
* Strongly recommend Windows 2000/XP for utility configuration

Setup
Configuration requires the use of Windows PC. Once configured, any device may be connected to the 200Mbps
HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge's Ethernet port. To perform configuration, follow the procedures list below.
1. Connect a standard LAN cable from the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge's Ethernet port to your PC.
2. Plug the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge into a power outlet.
3. Wait a few seconds for startup to be completed, and then check the LEDs
•The Power LED should be ON.
•The HomePlug LED will be ON if other HomePlug devices are detected, otherwise it will be OFF.
•The Ethernet LED should be ON.
4. Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your Windows PC, and wait for it to start, select “Utility” from the autorun
screen. If it does not start automatically, locate and run SETUP.EXE.
5. Follow the prompts to install the PLI-2030 utility.
6. Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 is needed for installing PLI-2030 utility. The wizard will check automatically
whether the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 was installed on your PC or not. If not, the wizard will pop up a
message box. Click OK to install Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 first.

7. Once installation is completed, run the PLI-2030 utility program. The first screen (Network Tab) will display in-
formation of the compatible devices found, such as their MAC Addresses and current transfer speeds.
Choose the desired device from the Device Selection, and the information of the selected device will be dis-
played in the table.

9. Enter both the Remote Device password in the DAK Password field and the desired Network Key in the field
provided. Click “Set” to save this value to the remote HomePlug device.
If the DAK Password is left blank, the Network Key will be saved to the local HomePlug device only.
•All HomePlug devices must use the same Network Key, or they will not be able to communicate with each
other.
•On this screen, you can also click Use default to use the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge's default
Network Key.
10.Click Close to exit the PLI-2030 utility.
Setup is now complete.
If your PC is not the device you wish to use with the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge, connect the
Ethernet cable from the 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge to the desired device.
The 200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge is now ready for use.
Operation
Operation is completely automatic, and no user intervention is required.
If your HomePlug devices have difficulty communicating with each other, check the following:
•Each HomePlug device must use the same Network Key.
You can use the Encryption tab of the PLI-2030 utility to assign a Network Key to other HomePlug devices.
•200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge works better when plugged into the wall socket. Connect the
200Mbps HomePlug AV Ethernet Bridge into the power strip or surge protectors may degrade the network
performance.
