4.2.4 Advanced Screen

The Advanced screen allows you to set up a network password remotely on other PL-401E

through the powerline. Type your private network password into the Network Password text

box. The device password of a PL-401E is adding 0000 to its MAC address. For example, the

device password of a PL-401E with MAC 00304F25A509 is 0000-0030-4F25-A509. The other

device on the network with PowerPacket™ capabilities will have a different device password

printed on either the case itself or in the documentation. Find the passwords for all devices you

want to manage and type them one by one into the Device Password text box and click Add.

This will add the passwords to Remote Passwords text list box and set them to the currently

defined Network Password.

Note: The device must be present on the powerline in order for the password to be

confirmed and added to the Remote Passwords list.

The Status indicates whether each device is successfully set to the Network Password. OK

indicates success while “Fail” indicates a failure. Click Set All to apply your private network

password to all devices that are listed in the Remote Passwords text list box and to your local

device connected to the computer where the utility is running as well. Select a password and
