HDX111 Powerline HD Plus Ethernet Adapter Start Here These instructions explain how to add HDX111 Powerline HD Plus Ethernet Adapters to your existing network. After you install the HDX111 Adapters, your network will combine an Ethernet portion, where the devices are connected with cables, with a Powerline portion, where the devices are connected over your electrical wires. Internet Powerline Ethernet Ethernet network network Preparing for Installation To prepare for installation: 1. Before you begin, verify the following: • Your Ethernet network is set up and an Ethernet port is available on your router. • Your Internet connection is working. • Each computer that will use the HDX111 Adapter has an Ethernet port available and is configured to work on your network. Usually, the default configuration settings (TCP/IP and DHCP) are fine. 2. Familiarize yourself with the HDX111 Adapter. The front panel has a pass-through outlet, a Standby button, a Security button, and three LEDs: AP, Status, and Ethernet. The Ethernet port is located on the bottom. 3. Plan the location of your Powerline devices. • Do not connect the HDX111 to a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector as this might prevent it from working properly or degrade the network performance. • Use an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch to avoid someone unknowingly turning off the power to the outlet. • For best Powerline performance, plan to connect adjacent electrical appliances of up to 15 amps directly to the pass-through AC outlet. The outlet filters out noise that affects Powerline performance. Pass-through outlet Standby button Security button LEDs Ethernet port Installing the HDX111 Adapters Follow these steps: 1. Plug an HDX111 Adapter into a power outlet near your router. Use the blue Ethernet from the HDX111 package to connect it to a LAN port on the router so that the Powerline network can gain access to the Internet. Note: It is not necessary to disconnect your router from your computer. 2. Plug your other HDX111 Adapters into power outlets near the computers and peripherals to be included in your Powerline network. 3. If an appliance of up to 15 amps is plugged in next to the HDX111 Adapter, plug it into the pass-through outlet of the HDX111 Adapter. 4. Use the blue Ethernet cable from the HDX111 package to connect each HDX111 Adapter to an Ethernet port on a computer or peripheral. 5. Wait 20 seconds for each Powerline HD Ethernet Adapter to be recognized by the Powerline network. The Status and Ethernet lights should turn on. For details about how the LEDs work, see theUser Manual, located on your Resource CD, and also available at 6. Make sure that each computer connected to an HDX111 Adaptert can use the Powerline network. For example, access the Internet from a remote computer. If there is a problem, see “Troubleshooting Tips” on the other side of this document. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network from unauthorized access. This is especially relevant in settings like apartment buildings. See “Understanding Powerline Network Security” and “Securing Your Powerline Network” on the other side of this document. Understanding Powerline Network Security Powerline devices on the same network must use an identical network ID and encryption key. The HDX111 Adapter default Powerline network ID and encryption key are both PowerlineHD. If you do not set up security, anyone nearby with a Powerline network can use these to gain access to your network. Use the Security button on the HDX111 Adapter to change the Powerline network ID and encryption key. To return the HDX111 Adapter to its factory default settings, press the Security button for 12 seconds until the Status light goes off; or use the NETGEAR HDX111 Configuration Utility on your Resource CD. See the User Manual, located on your Resource CD, and also available at Securing Your Powerline Network To change the default Powerline encryption key to secure your HDX111 Adapters: 1. Verify that all the HDX111 Adapters on the Powerline network are plugged in. • Determine which HDX111 Adapter will be the Powerline security access point (AP). One HDX111 acts as a security AP in your Powerline network. • For best video performance, select the HDX111 connected to the PC or device where your video files reside to be the AP. 2. On the HDX111 Adapter that will be the security AP, press the Security button for 3 seconds until the AP light blinks. This indicates that it is searching to see if there is already a security AP on the Powerline network. The AP light blinks for 30 seconds and then remains on. The HDX111 Adapter does not discover a security AP, so it becomes the security AP and generates a new network ID and encryption key. 3. Press the Security button of the same HDX111 Adapter again, for 3 seconds, until its AP light blinks. This puts it into search mode. 4. While the AP light is sti...
