Initial Use
For example, I already set up a wireless network using powerline
devices, but the wireless network is still not big enough to reach
the top floor. So I bought a new powerline extender to extend
the wireless network.
1. Plug the new powerline extender into a wall socket near one
of the existing powerline extender.

2. Check the new extender’s Powerline LED . Is it on?
• If it is on, follow Step 4 > A.
• If it is off, follow Step 3 and Step 4 > B.
3. Join the new powerline extender into the existing powerline
network by pairing two powerline devices.
a . Press the Pair button on the existing powerline device for
1 second. The Power LED starts blinking.
Note: If the Power LED does not blink, press again.
b . Within two minutes, press the Pair button on the new
powerline extender for 1 second. The Power LED starts
blinking. When the Powerline LED turns solid, the pairing
process is complete.

4. Relocate the new extender to the Wi-Fi “dead” zone.
Note: A red Powerline LED indicates poor signal strength. Move the extender to
another location.
