Private Network Name
The Private Network Name menu provides the function to manually change the
Private Network Name of both local and remote HomePlug AV/AV2s devices. A
Private Network Name is a string of 8 to 64 characters which enables HomePlugAV2
devices to communicate with each other.
If you intend to create multiple networks, you can assign different Private Network
Names among your devices. However, you have to ensure that at least two
HomePlug AV/AV2s have a similar Private Network Name. A HomePlug that uses a
unique or random Private Network Name will be unable to communicate with other
devices which use a different random Private Network Name.
Note: In case you cannot connect into the network after changing the Private
Network Name, please POWER CYCLE the device.
To POWER CYCLE the device, disconnect and then reconnect your HomePlug to the
wall socket.
