deo streaming and online gaming; flashes when data

Network connection

This is the connection point on the dLAN 500 AVmini
for connecting it to a computer or another network de-
vice with the network cable (included).

Encryption button

Data encryption at the touch of a button; For more in-
formation on the functions of the encryption button,
please see the chapter

 4.3 dLAN AV network en-

cryption at the touch of a button

Please note that all dLAN AV devices
to be connected to your network are
also connected to your household
electrical wiring. A dLAN AV device
switches to Standby mode after a
short while if no active network de-
vice such as a computer is connected
to the network port. In Standby mode,
the dLAN AV device cannot be acces-
sed via the power supply grid. As soon
as the network device (e.g. computer)
connected to the network interface is
switched on again, your dLAN AV de-
vice can also be reached again via the
electrical wiring.
