Customize Your Network Security
When you first set up your network, the setup uses a default encryption
key common to all Homeplug AV-certified adapters. You can change this.
¾
To create a private secure network:
1. Wait until the Pick A Plug LEDs are lit.
2. Press the
Security
button for two seconds on one adapter, and then
press the
Security
button on one of the other adapters for two
seconds. Both buttons must be pressed within two minutes.
Note:
The
Security
button does not work in power saving mode (see
Troubleshooting Tips
on page 13
).
Warning
: Do not press the
Security
button on the PowerLINE adapter
until installation is complete and the adapters are communicating with
each other (indicated by the Power LED). Pressing this button too soon
can temporarily disable PowerLINE communication. If this occurs, use the
Factory
Reset
button to return the PowerLINE adapter to its factory
default settings.
If you add adapters later, use this procedure to add the new adapters to
your secure network.
