See Adding Adapters to Your Network on page 6. • You can use the XAVB1501 Powerline Utility to add the new device to the network, as described in the following sections. The procedure for setting the network encryption key depends on whether the computer running the XAVB1501 Powerline Utility is connected directly to the new adapter (local) or is connected to a different device in the Powerline network (remote). To add a local Powerline device: A local Powerline device is connected to your computer with an Ethernet cable. 1. Plug the new adapter into an available AC power outlet. 2. Connect the Ethernet cable that came with the adapter to the adapter’s Ethernet port and an Ethernet port on the computer. 3. Start the Powerline Utility. This displays the Device Settings tab. Wait for the utility to detect the new device. 4. Select the Advanced tab, and click the Security arrow. 5. From the Device Name column select the device. 6. Type the network encryption key into the Create a New Encryption Key field. 7. Click the Apply Security to Selected Devices button. 8. Select the Device Settings tab to perform a scan. Verify that the devices in the Powerline network appear in the device list. It may take a minute or two for all devices in the network to be detected. To add a remote Powerline device: Remote devices are on the Powerline network, but are not directly cabled to the computer on which you are using the Powerline Utility. If you are using a custom network encryption key, set all the devices to the default network encryption key of HomePlugAV so that they can communicate with each other. Then set all the devices to the network encryption key that you want to use. 1. To change the encryption key for a remote device, you must enter the password for the device. The password is printed on the product label. 2. Click the device name for a remote Powerline device to highlight it in blue. Note: Be sure to change the password of remote devices before changing it on the local device so that you can maintain connectivity throughout this process. 3. Click Enter Password. 4. Enter the device password, and then click OK. The device password is located on the product label. 5. From the Device Name column, select the device. 6. Type the network encryption key into the Apply the Encryption Key field. 7. Click the Apply Security to Selected Devices button. 8. Select the Device Settings tab. This will perform a automatic scan. Verify that the devices in the Powerline network appear in the device list. It may take a minute or two for all devices in the network to be detected. Security Click the Advanced Settings tab to display the following screen: From this screen you can perform a number of security tasks, such as: • Change the network encryption key • Set up a custom network encryption key • Return to the factory default network encryption key • Change the network encryption key for one unit at a time Change the Network Encryption Key You can specify the network encryption key from the Security tab. 1. Select Advanced Settings > Security. When all the devices are set to the default network encryption key and are plugged in, they are listed on the Device Settings tab. 2. Select the check box for each device name that you want to add encryption for. Here you have two options: a.Use the Default Encryption Key option When you click this option, the factory default encryption key of HomePlugAV is automatically put into the field. b. Create your own Encryption Key This option lets you set your own network encryption key. Type your network encryption key in the field provided. 3. Apply the changes by clicking the Apply Security to Selected Devices button. When completed, the utility displays a message indicating that the operation was successful. 4. Click OK. Set Up a Custom Network Encryption Key When all the devices are set to the default network encryption key and are plugged in, they are listed on the Device Settings tab. To set up a custom network encryption key for all the Powerline devices: 1. Select the Device Settings tab to automatically perform a scan to detect the adapter status. Wait for the new device to be listed. A new device can be identified by its MAC address. 2. Select Advanced Settings > Security, and select the check boxes next to each device in the Device Name column. 3. Type your network encryption key in the Create a New Encryption Key field. 4. Click Apply Security to Selected Devices. The utility displays a message indicating that the operation was successful. 5. Select the Device Settings tab to perform a scan. Verify that all devices are detected with your network encryption key. Note: If one or more of your Powerline devices are not listed, see Quality of Service (QoS) on page 18. Return to the Default Network Encryption Key 1. Plug the new device into an AC power outlet. 2. Start the Powerline Utility • Wait for the utility to detect the devices in your Powerline network. • Check that all the device...
