network name.
Figure 9 ENCRYPT Connection Procedure
Note: The RESET/ENCRYPT button’s location varies for each Powerline model.
Note: Check the lights on the two powerline devices. The power ( ) and HomePlug ( )
lights should be on while the devices are connecting. Wait for about two minutes
while your powerline devices connect.
If the power ( ) light does not blink when you press RESET/ENCRYPT, you have probably
pressed the RESET/ENCRYPT button for too long. Try again, pressing the RESET/
ENCRYPT button for 0.5 to 3 seconds.
If the HomePlug ( ) lights on both powerline devices do not light up, the powerline
devices are not connected. Repeat step 1 in this section. If that doesn’t work, see the
Troubleshooting in Section 6.4 on page 47 for suggestions.
2 To add more powerline devices to your network, use any powerline device (A or B) you have
connected to set up a connection with the powerline devices you want to connect (C and D).
3 Press the RESET/ENCRYPT button on both powerline devices (A and C, or B and C) for 0.5 to 3
seconds to add powerline device C. This must be done within 2 minutes (120 seconds) of pressing
the RESET/ENCRYPT button on the PLA.
