Understanding PowerLine AV2 1000 Gigabit Adapter Security

The PowerLine AV2 1000 Gigabit Adapters on the same network must use an identical encryption key. The default encryption

key of each PowerLine AV2 1000 Gigabit Adapter is HomePlugAV. All PowerLine AV2 1000 Gigabit Adapters with the default

encryption key can communicate with each other.

It’s recommended to create a private encryption key for network security purpose. The private encryption key allows you to

protect your network from unauthorized access via the PowerLine network. To create a private encryption key instead of the

default encryption key, please follow the steps below:

1. All Adapters

Plug in all the adapters to be congured and make sure each device’s encryption key is set to HomePlugAV (default value). If

the encryption key is not set to the default value, press the reset button for 10 seconds to reset it to the default value.

2. First Adapter

Press Simple Connect Button of the rst adapter for no more than three seconds.

The Power LED will start blinking after you release the button.The adapter will create a private, randomly generated encryption

key that each PowerLine AV2 1000 Gigabit Adapter will use.

3. Second Adapter

Within two minutes of pushing the Simple Connect Button on the rst adapter, press the Simple Connect Button on second

adapter in your PowerLine network for no more than three seconds. The Power LED will start blinking after you release the

button.

Note: Both Simple Connect Buttons must be pressed within two minutes.

After the above network security setup steps, your PowerLine network will be securely congured with the same network

encryption key. The adapters will memorize the security settings even if they are unplugged.

Note: To change the private encryption key, please reset the adapter back to its default value by pressing the reset button for

10 seconds and then follow the security setup procedure above.

4. Adding More Adapters

If you would like to add more than two adapters, press the Simple Connect Button of the additional adapter for no more than

three seconds. The Power LED will start blinking after you release the button.

Then press the Simple Connect Button of any adapter in your existing PowerLine network for no more than three seconds.The

Power LED will start blinking after you release the button.

Note: Both Simple Connect Buttons must be pressed within two minutes.

After the above network security setup steps, your PowerLine network will be securely congured with the same network

encryption key.
