Computers connected with HomePNA access the Internet connection on the HomePortal residential
gateway and other computers on the network using existing telephone wiring. You will need one adapter
for each computer that you are connecting through HomePNA. If your computer does not have a
HomePNA port, you must install a PCI HomePNA adapter or an external HomePNA adapter. Specific
instructions for installing HomePNA network adapters can be found in the individual adapter package (if
purchased separately) or on your HomePortal Setup Wizard CD (if included with your HomePortal). The
HomePNA adapter shown in the following example is a 2Wire PC Port Phoneline Adapter.
1. Install the HomePNA adapter according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
After your adapter is successfully installed, repeat Step 3 “Install the HomePortal
Software” on page 14.
