XAV5004 Powerline AV 500 Adapter User Manual
Set the Encryption Key
You can use the Security button to change the default encryption key and set a private
encryption key instead. The default encryption key is HomePlugAV.
Note: Before you change the Encryption key, you need to install the
Powerline adapters and get them up and running. Otherwise, they
might not be able to communicate with each other.
To set a private encryption key:
1. Verify that all the Powerline adapters to be configured are plugged in.
2. On the first Powerline XAV5004 Adapter, press its Security button for 2 seconds.
The power LED will start blinking after you release the button.
The adapter will automatically produce a new, randomly generated network encryption
key that each Powerline adapter will use.
At this point, the other adapters in your network cannot communicate with each other.
3. Within 2 minutes of pressing the Security button on the first adapter, press the Security
button on the second adapter for 2 seconds.
In order to pair the devices, both buttons must be pressed within 2 minutes.
This securely configures your Powerline network with the same network encryption key.
4. If your network has more than 2 adapters, press the Security button on the additional
adapter for 2 seconds, then press the security button on any additional adapters in your
existing network for 2 seconds. Both buttons must be pressed within 2 minutes. The
adapters retain security settings even if they are unplugged.
Note: An adapter can only generate a private key once. To replace a
private key, first reset the adapter back to its factory defaults, then
follow the procedure above. See
Reset a Device to Factory Settings
on page 17.
