devolo dLAN 500 duo+
A dLAN adapter connected to a com-
puter can only go into power saving
mode if the network card of the
switched-off computer is also inactive.
If you are using a network card that re-
mains active even when the computer
is switched off, we recommend con-
necting the computer to an on/off
switch using a multiple socket so that
both the computer and the integrated
network card are de-energised.
