Adding additional dLAN adapters

Additional dLAN devices in the network must now be added to the dLAN 
adapter which is connected directly to the computer. You will need the 16-char-
acter security IDs from the label on the adapter housing. Enter the code without 
hyphens and confirm by clicking 

Define password

. If the security ID is correct 

the device will be encrypted and displayed in the list.

Once you have entered the security IDs of your dLAN adapters, your dLAN net-
work is complete. All computers and other network devices connected to the 
adapters by network cable should now be able to communicate with one 
another in the network.

devolo Informer

devolo Informer can detect all available dLAN adapters in your home network 
and display device information in an overview. After installing the devolo soft-
ware, it can be found in the 

Start

 

 

Programs

 

 

devolo

 program group. 

When the Informer is launched, it initially scans your home network for all avail-
able dLAN devices. This may take a moment. All found adapters are listed with 
their names and MAC addresses in the overview window. Their firmware ver-
sions are also displayed, as are the transfer speeds of active connections 
between the adapters. devolo Informer generally updates the list of found dLAN 
devices automatically. If newly-added adapters do not appear in the window, 
refresh the display with 

F5

 or via the 

View

 menu.
