The Powerline Adaptor Kit lets you connect your Optus TV with Fetch Set Top Box to your

broadband internet through the electricity wires in your home. It’s an alternative to using a

direct ethernet connection or wireless.

And since you are dealing with electricity, there are some things you need to check

before you get going:

• If you are using power boards, refer to the power board notes in Step 1 and Step 2.

• Identify a power point near your modem to plug the White Adaptor (A) into.

• Identify a power point near your Optus TV Set Top Box to plug the Black Adaptor (C) into.

• Ensure you have easy access to the power points and existing modem for setup.

SAFETY TIP: Turn power points off before you plug in any new devices or unplug any existing devices.

Q. What if I don’t have a spare Ethernet port

on my modem?

A. You will need to unplug an existing device

from your modem to free up a port to connect

your White Adaptor.

Q. What if the Power light is off?

A. Make sure that power is supplied to the

electrical outlet, and that the Powerline devices

are not plugged into an extension cord, power

strip, or surge protector.

Q. The Powerline light is off. What can I try?

A. Move the Powerline device to a closer location.

Reset the devices to factory default settings. Refer

to the full Netgear User Guide for instructions at

netgear.com/support

Q. Why does the Powerline light on my device

appear to be yellow or red in colour?

A. A yellow or red Powerline light indicates that the

device has successfully connected to the Powerline

network, however it is currently connected at a

lower speed – below 60Mbps (yellow) or below

40Mbps (red).

Make sure both Powerline devices are plugged

directly into a power socket and not into a power

board or extension cord. If available, try moving one

of the Powerline devices to a different power socket.

Q. What if the Ethernet light is off?

A. Make sure that your router and modem are on

and working correctly. Make sure that the Ethernet

cables are working and securely plugged into

the devices. Reset the devices to factory default

settings. Refer to the full Netgear User Guide for

instructions at netgear.com/support
