Initial Use
2. 1. To Set Up a New Secure Wireless Network
I want to:
Use the Powerline Wi-Fi Kit to set up a new secure wireless network in my house.
For example, I have a wireless router in my house, but the wireless signal cannot reach
every corner. So I bought a Powerline Wi-Fi Kit to extend the wireless network. The
Powerline Wi-Fi Kit includes a powerline adapter and a powerline extender.
How can I do that?
Method 1: Plug and Play
1. Connect the powerline adapter to an available LAN port of the router.
2. Plug the powerline adapter into a wall socket.
3. Plug the powerline extender into a wall socket near the adapter. Wait until the
extender’s Powerline LED
turns solid on.
