How the Powerline Adapter Fits intoYour Network

You can use one or more Powerline adapters to extend Internet access throughout your home.

A Powerline network consists of two or more compatible Powerline devices that communicate with each other using

your electrical power lines. One of the Powerline devices is connected with an Ethernet cable to your router so that

the Powerline network is linked to your local area network (LAN). Connecting one Powerline device to your router

allows all the Powerline devices on the Powerline network to communicate with the router and use its Internet

connection.

The following illustration shows a Powerline network with one Powerline device in Room 1 and a second Powerline

device in Room 2.

Figure 3. Poweline Adapters Connecting Two Rooms

To form a Powerline network, you need at least two compatible Powerline devices.

For best performance, follow these guidelines when you plan the location of your Powerline devices:
