point the adapter has been designated as a Fixed AP with an 

auto  generated  Network  ID  and  Encryption  key  and  its  AP/

STBY LED lights GREEN. 

3. Why is SDTV video not streaming?

•  Check the STATUS indicator LED in the adapter connected to 

the STB.

•  If the indicator is RED this means that the PLC link is not able 

to play an SDTV streaming.

•  Try  to  reposition  the  adapter  into  another  outlet  in  order  to 

obtain an ORANGE or GREEN indication.

•  If the indicator is ORANGE or GREEN, it should now be able to 

play SDTV video. 

•  If the SDTV video still does not play, check the Ethernet cables 

and  the  settings  of  devices  connected  to  the  PLC  adapters 

(STB, router, PC, video server, etc.).

4. Why is there more than one AP on the network? 

•  In order to work properly your network can only have one Fixed 

AP unit. Verify that this is the case by examining the AP/STBY 

LED for all adapters 

•  If  there  is  more  than  one  AP,  it  means  that  key  exchange 

process has failed.

•  Perform  a  factory  reset  on  the  adapter  you  DO  NOT  wish  to 

be designated as an AP (see Step 2 on page 7 for the Factory 

Reset procedure).

•  Repeat network configuration procedure again (page 7).
•  If the configuration procedure has again failed, it is possible the 

adapters are using different forms of encryption (crypto mode). 

To eliminate this as a possibility;

Perform a factory reset on all adapters

Choose  the  adapter  you  will  like  to  act  as  an  AP  (we 

recommend the one connected to your modem/router)

Press CONFIG/RESET button until its AP/STBY LED starts 

blinking.

Wait until configuration period finishes (30 seconds).  At that 

point the adapter has been designated as a Fixed AP with 

an auto generated Network ID and Encryption key and its 

AP/STBY LED lights GREEN.

Follow the steps on page 7 and .
