Set Up a Secure Powerline Network by Pairing (Recommended)

You can create or join a secure powerline network using the Pair button on two devices at a time.
Tips: We recommend that you plug in the powerline devices near each other when pairing

To create a secure powerline network:

  1. Press the Pair button on any of the powerline devices for 1 second. Its Power LED should start blinking.
    Note: If the Power LED does not blink, press the Pair button again.

  2. (Within 2 minutes) press the Pair button on another device for 1 second. Its Power LED should start blinking

  3. When the Powerline LED lights up, a powerline network has been successfully created.

To join an existing secure powerline network:

  1. Press the Pair button on any of the existing powerline devices for 1 second. Its Power LED should start blinking.
    Note: If the Power LED does not blink, press the Pair button again.

  2. (Within 2 minutes) press the Pair button on the new powerline adapter for 1 second. Its Power LED should start blinking.

  3. When the Powerline LED lights up, a powerline network has been successfully created.
