2 Set Up Your Powerline Network

You can expand your network by connecting another
HomePlug AV powerline adapter to an outlet on the same
electrical circuit as the PLA470.

In the figure above, computer A can now access the Internet
via the powerline link (B) and the Internet gateway (C)
connected to the PLA470. (This figure is an example only,
you can connect almost any networking device to your
powerline adapters.)

• If the HomePlug (

) lights turn on, your HomePlug AV

network is ready for use.

• If the HomePlug (

) lights do not turn on, or if you want to

make your network more secure, go to the next section to set
up a HomePlug AV network using the ENCRYPT button. If
your powerline devices do not have the ENCRYPT button,
see the User’s Guide for instructions on setting up a secure
powerline network.
