LABEL DESCRIPTION
Adapter This field identifies which powerline network information is displayed. Different powerline
networks are identified by the Ethernet interface (network card) on your computer which is
connected directly to a powerline adapter. Typically there is only one connection. However, if
your computer has two network cards and both are connected to a powerline adapter, then
you have two powerline networks.
Site This field displays:
• Local, if it is the PLA directly connected to the computer running the configuration utility.
• Remote, if it is a powerline adapter in your powerline network but not directly connected
to the computer running the configuration utility.
MAC Address This is a read-only field which shows the MAC address of the powerline adapter you are
configuring. You can find the MAC address of your PLA displayed on a sticker on the bottom
of your device.
Priority Select a priority setting from the drop-down box for traffic FROM your selected device. The
options, in order of importance, are High, Medium, Normal and Low.
Save Click this to apply your changes. The new Priority setting is applied to the selected
powerline adapter.
