Chapter 2: Product Installation
At factory default settings, a pair of TPL-307E 200Mbps Powerline AV adapters
with Bonus Outlet (or TPL-307E2K) can be installed into any room in your home or small
office with a wall power outlet, without the need for additional software or configuration.
To create a simple powerline network using a pair TPL-307E powerline adapters, simply
plug one of your TPL-307E adapters into a wall power outlet in one room and plug the
other TPL-307E adapter into an available wall power outlet in another room to establish
connectivity between the two rooms.
In order to share Internet connectivity through your powerline adapters, it is ideal
to install at least one powerline adapter in the room where your modem and router are
located and connect the powerline adapter to one of your router’s LAN ports via Ethernet.
Any additional powerline adapters that are installed and connected in other rooms will
then share Internet connectivity through your router. Once the powerline adapters are
connected to each other through the electrical system, any additional devices such as
computers or network appliances (e.g. Game Console, Blu-ray player, IP Set Top Box,
network enabled TV, etc.) connected to any of your powerline adapters via Ethernet can
then communicate to each other as well as share Internet connectivity through your
router.
The example diagram shows a typical powerline network configuration in a home environment with 3 powerline adapters
installed in different rooms. The orange line represents the powerline connectivity established through your home’s electric-
al system and the blue lines represent Cat. 5, 5e, 6 Ethernet connectivity to your network enabled appliances such as a
computer, router, or IP set top box connected to your television.
