authenticate devices within a powerline network. The default
network password
of the P-660HWP-Dx is

.The P-
660HWP-Dx must use the same network password to recognize and
communicate with other adapters over the powerline network. If you
change the password of one device on the network, it will no longer
be recognized as part of that network. If you change the
network
password
, make sure you change the password for all of the
powerline adapters that you want to be part of your powerline
network.
The network password can be from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters
in length; spaces are not allowed.
