Troubleshooting

light is off.

• Make sure the PLA491’s power cord is connected to a suit-

able power source and that the HomePlug switch on top of
the device is set to ON.

• Try moving the second powerline adapter to an adjacent

power outlet (to the PLA491) and see if the

light dis-

plays. If the

light shines this time, possibly your powerline

adapters were not on the same electrical circuit.
