Privacy Screen
The Privacy dialog screen provides a means for managing the local network and providing additional security. All Powerline devices are shipped
using a default logical network (network name), which is normally “HomePlug”. The Privacy dialog screen allows user to make the network private
by changing the network name (network password) of devices. The user can always reset a Powerline network to the universal one (public) by
entering “HomePlug” as the network name or by clicking on the Use Default button.
Note: Changing the network name to any other name other than HomePlug will show the network type on the main screen as Private. The Network Name is between 4 to 24
characters.
The Set Local Device Only button is used to change the network name (network password) for the local device only. After doing this, all the
devices seen on the Main panel prior to this will no longer be able to communicate or respond to the computer, as they will be on a different
logical network. Devices previously set up with the same logical network (same network name) will appear in the device list afterward selecting this
option.
The Set All Devices button is used to change the logical network of all devices that appear on the Main panel. The user must have entered the
Device Password in order to set it to the new logical network. A notication message will appear to report the success of this operation.
