Use Your Powerline Adapter
2 3 Secure Your Powerline Network by Pairing
All powerline adapters share some common factory settings, and can communicate
with one another. If you want your powerline adpaters to communicate only with your
own powerline adapters, you should pair them. Thus a secured powerline network is
formed and other powerline adapters can no longer join your powerline network without
being paired.
Note:
You can only pair two devices at a time.
Secure my powerline network and prevent other powerline
devices from being added to my network.
For example,
I’ve extended my network using the Plug & Play
method. Now I want to secure my network.
1
Verify all powerline devices’ Power LEDs are solid on.
Tips:
We recommend that you plug in your powerline devices next
to each other, or as close to each other as possible when pairing. Your
settings will not be affected. The devices can be relocated to where they
are needed once pairing is complete.
2
Press the Pair button on one of the powerline devices for 1
second. Its Power LED starts blinking.
3
Within two minutes, press the Pair button on another
powerline adapter for 1 second. Its Power LED starts
blinking. When the Powerline LED stays on, the pairing
process is complete.
