GETTING SET UP

The Powerline Adaptor Kit lets you connect your Optus TV with Fetch Set Top Box to your 
broadband internet through the electricity wires in your home. It’s an alternative to using a 
direct ethernet connection or wireless. 

And since you are dealing with electricity, there are some things you need to check  
before you get going:

•   If you are using power boards, refer to the power board notes in 

Step 1

 and 

Step 2

.

•  Identify a power point near your modem to plug the White Adaptor 

(A)

 into.

•  Identify a power point near your Optus TV Set Top Box to plug the Black Adaptor 

(C)

 into.

•  Ensure you have easy access to the power points and existing modem for setup.

SAFETY TIP:

 Turn power points off before you plug in any new devices or unplug any existing devices.
