Chapter 1 Get to Know About Your Powerline Adapter

1. 1. Product Overview

What This Product Does

TP-LINK powerline adapter is a network expansion device. With the help of your home’s

existing electrical circuitry, it can extend Internet access to throughout your home.

2X2 MIMO with Beamforming

The HomePlug AV2 standard with 2X2 MIMO lets you enjoy higher powerline speeds,

greater stability, and improved network coverage throughout the home, particularly

for previously hard to reach outlets

The Integrated Power Socket

With the integrated power socket, you can still get power from the outlet for your other

devices. The built-in noise filter also helps to eliminate electrical signal noise that might

otherwise affect powerline transmission performance.

1. 2. Product Appearance

Note that the appearance of powerline adapters varies by region and version of the

product. Your powerline adapter might look different.

1. 2. 1. LED Legend

LEDs indicate the working status. For more details, please refer to the following table.

network or is in Power-Saving Mode.

Ethernet On/Off At least one Ethernet port is connected or no Ethernet port is

connected.

Chapter 1 Get to Know About Your Powerline Adapter

* Five minutes after the device connected to the adapter is turned off, the adapter will

automatically switch to Power-Saving Mode.

1. 2. 2. Physical Interface

Integrated Electrical Socket

Used as a pass-through AC outlet to power other devices. Its built-in noise filter also

reduces some electrical noise that may interfere with powerline performance.

Power Plug

The powerline adapter has a Power Plug which can connect to any (100V-240V~,

50/60Hz) power socket.

Pair Button

Press and hold the button for 1 second to join a powerline network. Go to Secure Your

Powerline Network - Pairing for more information.

Press and hold the button for about 8 seconds to leave the existing powerline network.

Press and hold the button for more than 15 seconds to reset the powerline adapter.

Ethernet Port

You can use an Ethernet cable to connect your wired device, such as computer, router,

or game console, to the Ethernet port of the powerline adapter .

This chapter guides you on how to use the powerline adapter.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• Set Up a New Powerline Network - Plug and Play

• Secure Your Powerline Network - Pairing

• Add a Powerline Adapter to an Existing Powerline Network

• Manage Your Powerline Network Using tpPLC Utility

Chapter 2 Use the Powerline Adapter

2. 1. How the Powerline Adapter ExtendYour Network

Generally, you need two powerline adapters to create the first powerline connection.

First, you hook up one of the adapters to your existing router, then connect a second

adapter to a device that has a network port, such as a desktop computer, a printer, or

a game console. After that, plug each adapter into a wall socket and you’re done. The

adapters turn the electrical wiring in between them into a network cable and extend

the network from one to the other.

After the first connection is established, you’ll need just one more powerline adapter

for each additional device that you want to add to the existing network.

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

powerline adapters:

• Plug the powerline adapter directly into a wall socket. Do not plug the powerline

adapter into a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector.

Wall Outlet Power Strip

• Use the powerline adapter only in below directions.

• All powerline adapters should be on the same electrical wiring system.

• Avoid plugging powerline adapters near appliances that consume a lot of power,

such as washers, dryers, or refrigerators.

2. 2. Set Up a New Powerline Network - Plug and Play

Use two powerline adapters to set up a new powerline network

in my house.

For example, I have a router in my house, but there are not

enough LAN ports to support all my wired devices. I don’t want

complex and expensive dedicated cabling. So I bought two

powerline adapters to extend the network via my household

electrical wiring.

1. Connect one of the powerline adapters to an available LAN

port of the router using an Ethernet cable.

2. Plug the powerline adapter into a wall socket.

3. Plug the second powerline adapter into a wall socket where

you want to add Internet access. Wait until the powerline

LED turns on.

.Note: If the Powerilne LED does not turn on, reset each powerline adapter to

its factory default settings. You can refer to How do I reset my powerline adapter?.

Then redo steps 1 to 3.

4. Connect your wired device, such as computer or game

console, to the powerline adapter using an Ethernet cable.

2. 3. Secure Your Powerline Network - Pairing

A secure powerline network is necessary if you live in an apartment building where

multiple households share the same electrical wiring system. To prevent leaking your

network to others living on the same building, the TP-LINK powerline adapter comes

with a Pair button that helps create secure powerline connections between the multiple

units.

Plug and play provides you the quickest way to set up a powerline network. However,

all powerline devices in the network use the same default key, and anyone nearby with

a powerline network can potentially access to your network. After using the Pair button

between your powerline devices, your powerline network will be configured to use a

private encryption key. That is, your network is more secure after pairing.

.Note: You can create or join a secure powerline network using the Pair button on two devices at a time.

Set up security on my powerline network to prevent any

unauthorized access to my network.

For example, I have previously set up a powerline network by

plug and play. That is, anyone nearby using the same electrical

wiring system as me can potentially access to my network. I

want to secure my network.

1. Make sure that all of the powerline devices are plugged in

and their Power LEDs are solid on.

Tips: We recommend that you plug in the powerline devices near each other

when pairing.

2. Press the Pair button on one of the powerline devices for 1

second. The Power LED starts blinking.

3. Within two minutes, press the Pair button on the second

powerline adapter for 1 second. The Power LED starts

blinking. When the Powerline LED stays on, the pairing

process is done!
