You can use your PLA402 v2s to connect networking products on a home network using
the standard electrical wiring in your house. The PLA402 v2 also allows you to be more
flexible in expanding your network by adding coaxial cable capability. This expands your
HomePlug AV network across the coaxial cables in your building.
To create a secure HomePlug AV network you can use the ENCRYPT button on the rear
panel of the PLA402 v2.
As an example, this Quick Start Guide shows you how to use two PLA402 v2s (Band C) to
connect your computer (A) to a modem (D) on your home network for Internet access. You
can connect other networking products, such as a router or switch, the same way. This
example uses both a powerline connection and coaxial connection.
The coaxial connection offers a greater range than a powerline connection. This makes it
suitable for setting up networks in large areas such as apartment buildings, communities,
hotels and ships.
This Quick Start Guide shows you how to complete the following:
1Connect a PLA402 v2 to a Cable/DSL modem.
2Connect a PLA402 v2 to a computer in your home.
3Use the PLA402 v2’s ENCRYPT button to set up a HomePlug AV secure home
network.
See the User’s Guide on the included CD for details on all of the PLA402 v2’s features. If a
screen does not pop-up when you insert the included CD, use Windows Explorer (My
Computer) to go to the CD-ROM (commonly drive D) and browse for the User’s Guide.

• You can also connect a coaxial cable to a coaxial outlet.
Ensure the coaxial cable connector is properly connected to the coaxial port. You may
have to screw it in. The coaxial connection will extend beyond your house so use the
ENCRYPT button to secure your network after completing the connection.
The power ( ) light should be on and the Ethernet ( ) light should be on or blinking.
VIf none of the lights are on, unplug your device and recheck your hardware
connections.
2 Connecting the PLA402 v2 to a Computer
1Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN port (A) on the PLA402 v2 to the Ethernet
port (B) on your computer.

2Connect the PLA402 v2 to a power outlet. Your power cable and outlet may look
different.
• You can also connect a coaxial cable to a coaxial outlet.
The power ( ) light should be on and the Ethernet ( ) light should be on or blinking. If
these lights are not on, unplug your device and recheck your hardware connections.
• If the HomePlug ( ) lights turn on the first time you set up your PLA402 v2s, your
HomePlug AV network is ready for use. However, the PLA402 v2s may both be using
the default network name HomePlugAV. This well-known network name allows access to
your HomePlug AV network. You can make your network name more secure by going to
the next section to set up a HomePlug AV network with ENCRYPT.
• If the HomePlug ( ) lights do not turn on, go to the next section to set up a HomePlug
AV network with ENCRYPT.

VIf you are having trouble setting up your connections, make sure:
• Your outlets are working properly. Unplug the PLA402 v2 and plug in another electrical
appliance that you know works.
• The Ethernet cables you are using are Category 5 or higher. Most cables are labeled with
their specifications.
• All Ethernet and power cables are securely connected.
3 Set Up a HomePlug AV Network with ENCRYPT
Use the ENCRYPT button to set up a secure connection between your PLA402 v2 and
another ENCRYPT-enabled device (The PLA-400 v2 is shown as an example).
"Use the ENCRYPT feature on two devices at a time.
1Place the powerline devices close to each other, as you only have two minutes to press
the ENCRYPT buttons on both devices. You can disconnect the devices from your
computer or modem (or other networking equipment) if you need to, but the powerline
devices need to be plugged into power outlets.
2Press the ENCRYPT button at the rear of both of your devices for 10~15 seconds. This
sets up a random network name.
ENGLISH

3Press the ENCRYPT buttons at the rear of your powerline devices for 1~2 seconds
4While the devices are connecting, the power ( ) and HomePlug ( ) lights blink. Also
several times all lights blink at the same time and the HomePlug ( ) light shows red.
5Wait for about one minute while your powerline devices connect. The power ( ) light is
steady when the ENCRYPT process times out, the HomePlug ( ) light is steady if you
have a successful connection.
VIf the power ( ) light does not blink, you have probably pressed the
ENCRYPT button for too long. Try again, pressing the ENCRYPT button for
1~2 seconds.
VIf the HomePlug ( ) lights on both powerline devices do not light up, the
powerline devices are not connected. Repeat steps 2 and 3 in this
section. If that doesn’t work, see the User’s Guide for more suggestions.

6To add another powerline device (C) to your network, connect it with one of the
powerline devices (Aor B) already connected to your powerline network (See steps 2
and 3 in this section).
7If you disconnected your powerline devices from your computer or modem (or any other
networking product connected to your powerline device) in step 1 of this section, you
can now reconnect them.
VIf the HomePlug ( ) light is off, use the PLA-4xx configuration utility (see
the User’s Guide for details) to detect all other HomePlug AV devices on
your power line network. Try plugging a second HomePlug AV device into
an adjacent socket (to your PLA402 v2) and see if the HomePlug ( ) light
comes on.

Mit dem PLA402 v2 können Sie zu Hause Netzwerkgeräte über das herkömmliche
Stromnetz zu einem Heimnetzwerk zusammenschließen. Mit dem PLA402 v2 können Sie
Ihr Netzwerk flexibel erweitern, indem Sie zu Ihrem Netzwerk die Anschlussmöglichkeit
von Koaxialkabeln hinzufügen. Dadurch wird das HomePlug AV-Netzwerk auf die
Koaxialkabel im Gebäude erweitert.
Verwenden Sie die ENCRYPT-Taste, um ein sicheres HomePlug AV-kompatibles
Powerline-Netzwerk einzurichten.
In dieser Kurzanleitung wird beispielhaft gezeigt, wie Sie mit zwei PLA402 v2 (Bund C)
Ihren Computer (A) für den Internetzugang an ein Modem (D) Ihres Heimnetzwerks
anschließen können. Auf die gleiche Art können Sie andere Netzwerkgeräte wie Router
oder Switches anschließen In diesem Beispiel wird sowohl eine Powerline-Verbindung als
auch eine Koaxialverbindung gezeigt..
Diese Kurzanleitung enthält die folgenden Anleitungen:
1Anschließen eines PLA402 v2 an ein Kabel-/DSL-Modem.
2Anschließen eines PLA402 v2 an einen Heimcomputer.
3Richten Sie mit der Taste ENCRYPT (Verschlüsseln) des PLA402 v2 ein sicheres
HomePlug AV-Heimnetzwerk ein.
Eine Beschreibung aller Funktionen des PLA402 v2 finden Sie im Benutzerhandbuch, dass
auf der CD enthalten ist. Wenn die CD nach dem Einlegen nicht gestartet wird, rufen Sie mit
Windows Explorer (Arbeitsplatz) die CD-ROM auf (normalerweise Laufwerk D), und öffnen Sie
