Note: If your pairing is not successful, you can return the Network Extender to the non-secure
state by pressing and holding the pairing button for at least 10 seconds. Then, test your
connection in non-secure mode before trying to pair again.
Creating a G.hn Network with a Non-G.hn Router
If your router is not G.hn-capable, you can still create a G.hn network in your home using your
SBX-1000P and another Network Extender. Use the enclosed Ethernet cable to attach your
SBX-1000P to a LAN port on your router. The SBX-1000P will transmit data from your router
over your home's electrical wiring.
You will need a second Network Extender to complete your G.hn network. Follow the
instructions in
Configuring and Installing the Network Extender SBX-1000P
(page 13) to pair
the devices securely and complete your G.hn network.
