Ethernet Port

PowerLINE adapters use Ethernet ports to convert a standard electrical wall outlet into a high-speed wired

network connection.You can use the wired network connection to bring Internet connectivity to any device

with an Ethernet port, such as a computer, game console, Blu-ray player, smart TV, HD set-top box, or

network DVR.

Extra Outlet

For models with an extra outlet, you must observe a few restrictions on how you use the extra outlet.

The technical specifications for your model provide socket outlet ratings.See Technical Specifications and

Safety Information on page 17. See Safety Information on page 19 for general guidelines for use.

This chapter describes the setup and configuration of PowerLINE networks.

The chapter contains the following sections:

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

PowerLINEdevice to yourrouter allowsallthePowerLINEdevices on the PowerLINEnetworkto 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 2. Poweline adapters connecting two rooms

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

PowerLINE Networks

PowerLINE 2000

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

•Use an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch to avoid accidentally turning off the power

to the outlet.

•Avoid plugging PowerLINE products into electrical outlets that are located near appliances that consume

a lot of power, such as washers, dryers, or refrigerators. Interference from these appliances might

prevent PowerLINE products from working correctly or reduce PowerLINE network performance.

•Do not plug PowerLINE products into a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector. Connecting a

PowerLINE product to one of these devices might prevent the product from working correctly or reduce

PowerLINE network performance.

Set Up a New PowerLINE Network

You can use two or more PowerLINE adapters to form a network or extend an existing network to additional

wired Ethernet devices.

PowerLINE networks use an encryption key common to all adapters on the network.You can use the default

key or a private key.We recommend that you use a private key.This procedure sets a private key.

To set up a new PowerLINE network:

1. If you are extending an existing wired network, make sure that your wired Ethernet connections are

working by navigating to a web page from a computer connected to your router or gateway using an

Ethernet cable.

2. Plug one PowerLINE device into a wall outlet near your router or gateway.
