Chapter 2 Initial Use

This chapter guides you on how to use the powerline extender when you first open the package. It contains the following sections:

2.1 To Set Up a New Secure Wireless Network

I want to:
Use the Powerline Wi-Fi Kit to set up a new secure wireless network in my house. For example, I have a wireless router in my house, but the wireless signal cannot reach every corner. So I bought a Powerline Wi-Fi Kit to extend the wireless network. The Powerline Wi-Fi Kit includes a powerline adapter and a powerline extender.

How can I do that?

1. Connect the powerline adapter to an available LAN port of the router.

2. Plug the powerline adapter into a wall socket.

3. Plug the powerline extender into a wall socket near the adapter.
   

4. Pair the powerline devices.
   a . Press the Pair button on the powerline adapter for 1 second. The Power LED starts blinking.
   Note: If the Power LED does not blink, press the Pair button again.
   a . Within two minutes, press the Pair button on the powerline extender for 1 second. The Power LED starts blinking. When the Powerline LED turns solid on, the pairing process is complete.

5. Relocate the extender to the Wi-Fi “dead” zone. Use the SSID (network name) and password on the label at the top of the extender.
   Note: A blinking Powerline LED indicates poor signal strength. Move the extender to another location.

Done!
Now enjoy the internet!

2.2 To Extend the Existing Wireless Network

I want to:
Extend the existing wireless network by adding a new powerline extender to the existing powerline network. For example, I already set up a wireless network using powerline devices, but the wireless network is still not big enough to reach the top floor. So I bought a new powerline extender to extend the wireless network.

How can I do that?

1. Plug the new powerline extender into a wall socket near one of the existing powerline extender.
   

2. Check the new extender’s Powerline LED . Is it on?
   • If it is on, follow Step 4 > A.
   • If it is off, follow Step 3 and Step 4 > B.

3. Add the new powerline extender to the existing powerline network by pairing two powerline devices.
   a . Press the Pair button on the existing powerline device for 1 second. The Power LED starts blinking.
   Note: If the Power LED does not blink, press the button again.
   b . Within two minutes, press the Pair button on the new powerline extender for 1 second. The Power LED starts blinking. When the Powerline LED turns solid on, the pairing process is complete.
   

4. Relocate the new extender to the Wi-Fi “dead” zone.
   Note: A blinking Powerline LED indicates poor signal strength. Move the extender to another location.
   A . Use the SSID (network name) and password on the on the label at the top of the extender to connect to the internet.
   B . If you cannot find the default SSID in your Wi-Fi network list, this may mean the Wi-Fi Move feature has automatically copied over the existing wireless settings. In this case, use the SSID and password of your existing powerline network to connect.

Done!
Enjoy the internet through your extended network!
