Chapter 3: Configuration
Overview
The HomePlug device uses 56-bit DES encryption to block outside access. The
key is set by using the HomePlug Configuration Utility on the CD. By default, the
protection is enabled. However, it is recommended that you change the default
network password. All your HomePlug devices must use the same network
password in order for the computers to be networked. Make sure that all devices
are loaded with the same network password.
Diagnose Powerline network
Part 1: Diagnose a Local HomePlug Device
Double click the PowerPacket Utility icon on your desktop to open this utility
show in the screen below
The Main tab shows the HomePlug units that are connected to the current
computer and oter devices on the network. It will also tell Mac Address of
each device. It will let you refresh the window, if you change devices, and
also will allow you to connect to different networks if multiple units are
connected to your computer.
9
*Note* If the Link Quality is poor, and appears red, or the Mac Address of
any of the units connected to this computer appears to be all 0’s, then you
might have a defective unit. Please contact technical support.
*Note* If you do not see ANY unit in the device status, and there is a
device connected to your computer, try to unplug all devices, and plug
them back in. Also make sure that the cable connecting your computer to
the HomePlug device is the right type and working correctly. If all of this
seems to be correct, and you still receive nothing in the Device window,
try rebooting your computer. If the problem still persists, please contact
technical support.
Part 2: Diagnose a Network HomePlug device
The Main tab shows all the other HomePlug Units on your powerline
network. It will represent them by MAC Address, and will also show the
available bandwidth to each unit (Units farther away from the current
computer might have a lower Data Rate, since the distance is farther). If
you add or subtract units from your home network, you might want to re-
Scan, by clicking the “Scan” button. This will rescan the network, and
refresh with any changes.
10
**Note** Only units with the same Network Password will be shown,
please check that first, to make sure they all have the same network
password (Case sensitive).
**Note** If a Unit shows MAC Address of all 0’s, this unit might not have a
solid connection, or might not connect at all. If this is the case please
contact technical support.
**Note** If there are Units in your home, that you do not see in this
Network scan, try to unplug all devices, and plug them back in (Only do
this with the Units that you do not view in the network screen, you don’t
have to do this with all units. If the problem persists, try to move the unit
closer to this current unit (adjacent plugs on the same wall socket is most
preferable). If the problem still persists and that unit is still not shown on
the network, then the unit might be defective please contact technical
support. Otherwise if you view the unit working, distance might be the
only issue.
