Chapter 2:  Installation 
 
 

Overview 
 

The installation of 200M Ethernet Bridge will only take minutes.  No need to set 
up long wires through out the house, just simply install the utility, and physically 
plug the unit into the wall outlet, then to connect RJ-45 to the computer.  Users 
can select to adjust its security functions and the platform of the network after the 
installation.  For further assistance, please read our Frequently Asked Questions 
section in our Web site. 
 
 
 

Running the InstallShield Wizard 
 

Please verify that no other Powerline Management Utilities are installed before

also be done manually by double clicking the setup.exe file on the CD.
