- Return to the installation Assistant and carefully follow the instructions displayed on your computer screen.
- Click Next to move on to the next step.
5. Connection to the network
The network password is applied to the Hercules ePlug adapters, which can now communicate with all the
adapters of the existing network.
If the connection of one of your adapters to the network has failed, an error message will be displayed.
There are several possible causes.
Cause 1: You may have incorrectly entered your identifier:
- Click Retry.
- Verify that the 16 letters found on the back of your Hercules ePlug 85 adapter have been
entered correctly.
- Click Next.
Cause 2: Your adapter may not be properly plugged into an electrical outlet, or this outlet is not
powered:
- Verify that the adapter's power LED is lit up.
- Click Retry.
- Click Next.
Cause 3: There may be a strong disturbance in your electrical network caused by other devices
near to your adapter:
- Avoid plugging your adapter directly into a power strip.
- Unplug the devices plugged in near to the adapter.
- Try plugging the adapter into another outlet.
Once you have verified all of these elements, click Retry, then Next.
Afterwards, you can launch this Assistant again at any time to install new Hercules ePlug adapters and
expand your HomePlug network.
If you decide to move your adapter after having completed the installation (to plug it into an electrical outlet
located in another room, for example), you do not need to relaunch this Assistant.
If you are a more advanced user, you can explore the world of the Hercules ePlug Station software, available
for download at http://www.hercules.com, to configure and supervise your network.
