Troubleshooting
If you are having problems with synchronizing one or more Powerline adapters, you have the
option of resetting them to Factory default by pressing the
Factory Reset
button for 1 second,
then release. Resetting the Powerline Adapter to Factory default will reset the security
encryption key back to its default, then you can try steps 1-3 (above) again. You can also
reset the adapter by logging into the genie interface of the powerline adapter.
** Please refer to your Powerline User Manual for additional information on adding additional
Powerline devices to the Powerline network. You can also visit this link for information:
Powerline Sleep Mode
The following picture shows a typical setup for a Powerline bundle.
Powerline A is connected to a Modem/WiFi Router
Powerline B is connected to a Smart TV
Through the home power grid the Internet data will flow from A to B and vice versa and the
internet connectivity will be assured to the device connected to the ‘B’ Powerline.
Supposed the Smart TV will be turned off and supposed the Powerline support the standby
mode, generally after a period of 10 minutes (this time might vary based on the purchased
model) the Powerline ‘B’ will start saving energy and go to sleep.
A
necessary condition
for the Powerline device to go into sleep mode is that no data shall be
transmitted to its Ethernet port for a certain period of time (model specific).
