Setting the network name
This HomePlug Powerline device uses 56-bit DES encryption to block outside access. The
security settings can be changed according to your preference using the Windows based
configuration utility. By default, protection is enabled. However, it is recommended that you
change the default network name (HomePlug). All Powerline devices must use the same
network name in order for the computers to be networked. To change the network name for all
of the devices, first you need to input the device password or DEK (Default Encryption Key)
for each device on the network...

Highlight the detected Powerline
device in the larger box and click
the Enter Password button.
2.
Enter the DEK of the device
here. You can find the DEK on the
bottom of the unit. Click OK once
you have entered the password.
3.
Once the password has been
verified, click OK. If the password
is not recognised, please check
again that you are entering the
DEK exactly as printed on the
bottom of the unit.
