Install Your Powerline Adapters Room 1 This room has an XAV1601 Powerline adapter connected to a router.
Room 2 This room has an XAV2602 Powerline Adapter. The filtered AC socket removes some electrical noise. Plugging a nearby device into the filtered AC socket improves performance. The ports use Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize traffic. Port 1 on the left is the high-priority video port. You can plug a power strip into the filtered outlet, but do not plug your Powerline adapter into a power strip.
Secure Your Powerline Network A Powerline network forms when at least two compatible Powerline devices communicate. After the Powerline network is up and running, you can use the Security buttons on the adapters to add encryption to your Powerline network. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network to protect your personal information and media from unwanted access.
To secure your Powerline network: 1. Make sure the Power LED is solid green. If it is amber, connect a device to one of the Ethernet ports so the adapter exits power saving mode. 2. On the first Powerline adapter, press its Security button for 2 seconds. The Power LED blinks green while the adapter is setting up security. 3. Within 2 minutes, go to the next Powerline adapter and press its Security button for 2 seconds. After security is set, the Power LED turns solid green.
