1.1 What exactly is dLAN?
The dLAN ( d irect L ocal A rea N etwork) uses the household power grid to transfer
data between computers equipped with suitable adapters and other network
components. As a result, any power outlet can be used as a network access
point. The data is modulated prior to transfer and sent as a signal via household
power lines. State-of-the-art technology ensures that the power and data net-
works do not interfere with one another. Networking via dLAN is fast and
secure. The data is encrypted to prevent easy interception by third parties.
1.2 What does the dLAN TV Sat PC offer you?
The devolo dLAN TV Sat PC is a digital satellite receiver that uses the DVB-S2

200 Mbps in the HomePlug AV standard. Additional "Quality of Service" [QoS]
methods guarantee automatic prioritisation of the image and sound signals and
