4.2 Set Up a Powerline Network Using the Web Configurator
Follow these steps to set up your HomePlug AV network for the first time.
1 Make sure your PLA450 and other HomePlug AV powerline devices are connected to
power outlets and turned on.
2 Log into the web configurator if you haven’t already and click Go to Basic setup. Click
Network > HomePlug to begin setting up your network.

only access your network if it has the correct Network Name.
• Select Public, Network Name is HomePlugAV to set your Network Name to the
default (HomePlugAV). Choose this less secure option to easily add a new Home-
Plug AV device (with the default network name) is connected to your wiring, without
having to change its network password.
• Select Private, Network Name is and type a Network Name if you want to make
your network more secure.
