CHAPTER 8
Powerline
This chapter introduces the main applications and management of the powerline feature.
8.1 Overview
The P-660HWP-Dx is a HomePlug AV adaptor integrated DSL product. The P-660HWP-Dx
and other HomePlug AV powerline adapters in your network communicate with each other by
sending and receiving information over your home’s electrical wiring.
The P-660HWP-Dx plugs into an ordinary outlet to create a new network which can extend to
any other electrical outlet in any room of a house.
The following section shows you a typical application.
Figure 78 Expand Your Network
1 Connect your P-660HWP-Dx to the Internet.
2 Then plug your P-660HWP-Dx into a power outlet and turn it on.
The P-660HWP-Dx is ready for connection on a powerline network.
3 Connect another HomePlug AV compatible adapter to a computer and then plug it in on
the same home or office wiring.
After configuring the settings on all adapters (see Section 8.3 on page 38 and Section 8.4 on
page 39) your computer can now connect to the powerline network and to the Internet. Your
powerline network can be further expanded by plugging additional powerline adapters into
other outlets in your home and connecting other computers or network devices (for example, a
printer) to them.
