Section 2 - Hardware Installation Push Button Security Understanding PowerLine AV2 2000 Gigabit Adapter Security PowerLine adapters on the same network must use an identical encryption key. The default encryption key of each DHP-P700AV is HomePlug AV. All PowerLine AV2 2000 Gigabit Adapters with default encryption keys can communicate with each other. It’s recommended that you create a private encryption key for network security purposes.

Section 2 - Hardware Installation PowerLine Installation Considerations Plan the location of your PowerLine devices: 1. Connect PowerLine devices into electrical outlets that are not controlled by a wall switch. This will help you to avoid accidentally turning off power to the device. 2. Do not connect your PowerLine devices to extension cords, surge protectors, or power strips. Doing this might prevent your devices from working correctly, or may reduce network performance. 3.
Section 2 - Hardware Installation Safety Please read all of the safety and operating instructions before using your devices: 1. Do not open the devices or attempt to repair or service them. 2. Use the devices in a dry location, and avoid placing them in humid environments. 3. Do not submerge the devices in liquid or attempt to clean them with liquids or solvents. To clean the devices, disconnect from the power outlet and use a damp towel. 4. Keep the devices out of direct sunlight. 5.
Section 3 - Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If I do not see LEDs light up? If the Power LED is off, make sure the PowerLine devices are plugged into outlets with power. Also make sure the PowerLine devices are not plugged into an extension cord, power strip, or surge protector. If the PowerLine LED is off, the devices are unable to find each other. You can plug in all the PowerLine adapters within the same room in order to determine whether your home’s electrical outlets are suitable.
