The lower panel displays all the Powerline Ethernet devices, discovered on the
current logical network (remote devices). Displayed immediately above this panel is
the number of remote devices found, the type of logical network (Public or Private),
and a message area that reports connectivity
and scan status. The following information is displayed for each of the devices
discovered that appear in the lower panel:
Device Name column shows the default device name, which may be user re-defined.
A user may change the name by clicking on the name and editing in-place, or by
using the rename button. An icon is optionally shown with the name. A distinction in
icons is made between low-speed and high-speed devices (14Mbps and 85Mbps).
By default, the icon is displayed with the name.
MAC Address column shows the device's MAC address.
Password column shows the user-supplied device password (initially left blank).
A user may enter the password by using the Set Password button.
To set the Password of the device (required when creating a private network), first
select the device by clicking on its name in the lower panel and then click on the
Enter Password button.
A dialog box will appear as shown in Figure 4 to type the password. The selected
device name is shown above the field for entering the password. Hit OK after
entering the new password. A confirmation box will appear if the password was
entered correctly.
If a device is not found, the user will be notified and suggestions to resolve common
problems will be presented.
