Important: Because the 10/100 Bridge sends data over the power-
lines of your house, it is best to plug the Bridge’s power cord direct-
ly into a power outlet. Do not plug the device into a UPS or power
strip with surge protection. The 10/100 Bridge has its own power
filter for protection against surges.
