Connect an XET1001 to the Router

1. First, connect an XET1001 Wall-Plugged Ethernet Adapter to a LAN port on the router so that

the PowerLine network can access the Internet.

Do not connect the PowerLine adapter to a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector as
this may prevent it from working properly or degrade the network performance.
