PLEK500 Powerline Network Adapter
Installing the Powerline Network
Installation overview
To set up your Powerline network, you should:
Make sure you already have Internet access and a working home network.
Share Internet access with your Powerline network.
Install Powerline adapters in each room where you want to connect a
wired network device.
Tips
If possible, connect each Powerline adapter directly to a wall power
outlet, and not to an extension cord, power strip, or surge protector.
If a Powerline adapter must be installed onto a power strip, make sure
that no other electronic devices are connected to the same power strip.
For advanced adapter configuration, see Advanced Configuration on
page 5.
How to share Internet access
To share Internet access over the Powerline network, connect your router to
the Powerline network (typically with a single-port Powerline adapter such as
the PLE500).
To connect your wireless router to your Powerline network:
1.
Connect your single-port Powerline adapter to a power outlet near your
wireless router. The adapters power LED turns on.
2.
Use the included Ethernet network cable to the port on the adapter
and to an available port on the back of the wireless router. The adapters
Ethernet LED turns on. You are now ready to extend your Powerline
network to the rest of your home.
NOTE
For advanced security setup, see “Setting up advanced security on
page 5.
How to add a Powerline adapter to your
network
After your existing network’s router is connected to a Powerline adapter, you
can add adapters elsewhere in your home.
To connect an additional Powerline adapter:
1.
Connect the adapter to a power outlet near the network device(s) you
want to connect. The adapters power LED turns on. The Powerline LED
flashes, then stays on when the connection is finished.
2.
Connect the network devices network cable to an available port on the
Powerline adapter. The adapter’s Ethernet LED flashes, then stays on
when the connection is finished.
