• Do not use power extension cords to avoid degrading HomePlug signal and reducing data transfer speeds.
• To minimize powerline interference, connect the power cords to wall sockets directly.
• Plug the power cords to 3-prong outlets instead of 2-prong ones for higher data transfer speeds.
Use a network cable to connect your modem to the WAN port of the AiMesh router.
