Note: It is recommended to ensure that your Powerline adapters are already installed
and connected and the Ethernet port on each adapter is connected to a device powered
on.
First, add all of the Powerline adapters to the utility and enter the Device Password
(DPW) for each Powerline adapter to ensure you can change the encryption key for
multiple adapters. This is required when using the Powerline utility to change the
encryption key for multiple Powerline adapters.
To add automatically detected Powerline adapters to the Powerline Utility
1. Launch the Powerline Utility.
2. In the Powerline Utility Main window, wait for the utility to automatically scan for
Powerline adapters already connected to your Powerline network. If your Powerline
adapters have already been installed and connected using the same encryption key,
they should appear in the Remote Device list.
3. Select one of the Powerline adapters listed under Remote Device.
4. Click Enter Password.
