Chapter 3: Configuration

Overview

The PL-420 uses 56-Bit DES encryption to block outside access. The key is set
by using the Configuration Utility on the CD. By default, the protection is enabled,
however, it is recommended to change the default network password. All your
powerline devices must use the same network password in order to be
connected together.
