Using the Powerline Utility
The Powerline Utility allows you to do the following:
•
Create a customized encryption key for your Powerline network and apply it to
multiple Powerline adapters at the same time.
• View the Powerline adapters connected to your network (using the MAC
address) and the approximate connection quality and speed of each Powerline
adapter.
•
View and upgrade Powerline adapter firmware.
Note: Link speed displayed in the utility of your Powerline adapters to another
through your electrical system is estimated. Actual link speed may vary.
Before installing and using the utility, please ensure the following:
• Write down the
Device Password (DPW)
(16-digit characters A-Z only) and
MAC
Address
(12-digit characters a-f, A-F, 0-9) of each Powerline adapter as this will
be required to change the encryption key for multiple Powerline adapters. See
“Product Hardware Features” on page 2 .
• Make sure your computer in which you are installing the utility is connected to
your network and your Powerline adapters are also connected to your network.
• If you have changed your encryption key using the
Sync
button and you are
creating a customized encryption key, it is required to reset all Powerline
devices to factory defaults using the physical Reset button on your Powerline
adapter first before using the utility. See “Product Hardware Features” on page
2 .
• Please ensure that your Powerline adapters are already installed and connected
and the Ethernet port on each adapter is connected to a device powered on.
