2.4 Adding the Powerline Adapter to an Existing Powerline Network
The procedure describes how to add the TPL-305E 3-Port 200Mbps Powerline AV Adapter to
an existing powerline network.
Assuming the two TPL-305E powerline adapters are currently connected to each other and the
third TPL-305E (Additional) powerline adapter is currently disconnected.
1. Push and hold the Sync button on the additional TPL-305E powerline adapter for 10
seconds and release it. All LEDs will turn off and turn back on. This will erase the current
network name/security key assigned to the additional TPL-305E powerline adapter.
2. Push and hold the Sync button on one of the two TPL-305E powerline adapters that are
currently connected to each other for 2 seconds. The PWR LED will start blinking.
3. Within 2 minutes (120 sec), push and hold the Sync button on the additional TPL-305E for
2 seconds and release it. The PWR LED will start blinking. This will establish connectivity
between the three powerline adapters by assigning the additional TPL-305E powerline
adapter’s network name/security key to match the network name/security key of the TPL-
305E powerline adapters that are currently connected.
4. To verify connectivity between the three powerline adapters, make sure that the PL LED on
each powerline adapter is on solid (Green, Amber, Red). Please refer to the LED section 1.5
for details on the LED indicator.
