4.2 dLAN 200 AV network encryp-
tion using the dLAN Configura-
tion Wizard
When using dLAN 200 AV adapters without encryption
buttons, data encryption can only be set up using the
dLAN Configuration Wizard. Start by updating the firm-
ware (see 3.4.1 Firmware update) of the dLAN 200
AV adapters.
After successfully installing the devolo software, you
can launch the dLAN Configuration Wizard via the
Start
ı Programs ı devolo program group and the
Device ı Start dLAN Configuration Wizard of the
devolo Informer.
Before beginning with this step, make a note of the se-
curity IDs of all existing dLAN adapters. This unique
identifier of each dLAN device is located on the label of
the housing. It consists of 4 x 4 letters separated by da-
shes (e.g. ANJR-KMOR-KSHT-QRUV). Ensure that all
dLAN adapters are connected to the power grid and
computers or other network components as appropria-
te.
If the dLAN Configuration Wizard cannot
find a dLAN device in your network even
though one is plugged tightly into a power
outlet, follow the instructions for bandwidth
optimisation in the Appendix.
Configuring your dLANs using the dLAN Configuration
Wizard consists of three steps:
Scan for local adapter
After launching the wizard, it initially scans for a dLAN
adapter connected directly to your computer.
Entering a network password (fig. 7)
If your dLAN adapter has been found that is reachable
directly from your computer, you can select a network
password in the next step to be valid for this and all
other specified adapters in your personal home net-
work.
