key, you can just plug the new device into a power outlet. Then all devices can communicate with each other.
If the encryption key within existing Powerline network has been customized, you have two ways to add the new device
to your Powerline network.
1. You can use Powerline AV Utility to apply the customized encryption key in your record to the new device. Then all
devices can communicate with each other by using the customized encryption key.
2. You can use Powerline AV Utility to set all devices within existing Powerline network and the new device back to the
default encryption key first. Then follow the 1 to 4 steps of “Setting your private Encryption Key”. Your Powerline network
will securely be configured with a customized encryption key and all devices can communicate with each other after your
setting.
