devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1
* Information about the web interface can be
found in Chapter 4 Network configuration.
** Information about improving the transmission
rate can be found in Chapter 5.2 Connection tips.
***A devolo Magic adapter switches to standby
mode after approximately 10 minutes if no active
network device (e.g. computer) is connected to the
network interface and Wi-Fi is switched off. In this
mode, the devolo Magic adapter cannot be
accessed over the electrical wiring. As soon as the
network device (e.g. computer) connected to the
network interface is switched on again, your
devolo Magic adapter can also be accessed again
over the electrical wiring.
Check whether the adapter is connected to
the power supply correctly and whether the
pairing operation has been carried out suc-
cessfully. For more information about this,
refer to 3.3 Connecting the
devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1.
2.2.3Network port
You can use the network port on the devolo Magic
adapter to connect it to a stationary device such as
a computer, a game console etc. using a standard
network cable (Cat-5e UTP, not for in-wall use).
2.2.4Integrated power outlet
Use the integrated power outlet on the
devolo Magic adapter for connecting another
general electric consumer to the household power
supply. In particular, however, electronic devices
with power supply adapters can negatively affect
PLC performance.
The integrated power supply filter in the
devolo Magic adapter filters out this sort of exter-
nal interference and reduces the impact on PLC
performance.
