Page: 2 / 24

Step 1:
Plug the PLE400 into the power outlet.
QUICK TIP: If possible, connect the powerline adapters directly to a wall power outlet,
and not to an extension cord, power strip, or surge protector. If a powerline adapter must
be installed onto a power strip, make sure that no other electronic devices are connected to
the same power strip.
NOTE: Ensure that the PLE400’s Power LED is lit. Also, make sure that the
Powerline LED is lit. It will continue flashing until it connects to a second
powerline adapter.
Step 2:
Connect the PLE400 to one of the numbered ports of your router using an Ethernet cable.
NOTE: Make sure that the Ethernet LED corresponding to the Ethernet port where the
PLE400 is connected on the router is lit.
Step 3:
Connect the PLW400 into a power outlet.
NOTE: Ensure that the PLW400’s Power LED is lit. Also, make sure that the
PLE400 and PLW400 adapters are connected on the same circuit breaker.
Step 4:
Make sure that the Powerline LEDs of both PLE400 and PLW400 are lit
