Initial Powerline Adapter Setup
NOTE:
A minimum of two G.hn Powerline
Adapters are required to create a connection. The following
instructions will use the PG-9182PT as the primary connection to connect to the Network Device (Modem,
Router, or Access Point), however, any Comtrend G.hn Powerline Adapter can be used.
à
If you are setting up a G.hn Powerline network for the first time, then follow the below steps.
à
If you are adding to an existing G.hn Powerline network, then skip to Steps 3-5.
1.
Plug the PG-9182PT into a power outlet near your Network Device (Modem,
Router, or Access Point).
For maximum performance, please plug the Powerline Adapter directly into
the wall outlet. Do not plug into a power strip or surge protector, as network
performance could degrade significantly.
2.
Connect the Powerline Adapter to your Network Device (Modem, Router, or
Access Point) with an Ethernet (RJ-45) cable. Wait 10 seconds for the
Ethernet
LED
to light up
GREEN
, which indicates a connection is established. A flashing
GREEN
light indicates that the device is sending data.
