Chapter 2: Installation Overview The installation of the HomePlug Ethernet Bridge will only take minutes. No setting up for long wires through out the house. Just simply install the software CD that is included in the box and after installation, physically plug the unit into the computer and the wall outlet. Users will have options to adjust its security functions and the platform of the network once everything is installed properly.
On this screen you will be asked to input the User Name and Organization. It is not crucial to the device itself so enter as desired. The ‘Install this application for’ will work under the circumstances which multiple logins are applied. For example: If the user wishes only he/she can use the utility with that particular account, then bubble in ‘Only for me’. For those without multiple accounts or wishes to allow all users to access the utility choose ‘Anyone who uses this computer (all users)’.
This section allows you to change the default directory where the program is installed. If you don’t want to change the directory click on Next to continue the installation process. This section allows a user to go ‘Back’ or ‘Install’ the utility. In case if the user wishes to change the previous options then go ahead and click on ‘Back’ to change the settings. If not, continue and click the ‘Install’ button. This screen shows the progress of the installation.
This screen shows that the installation was completed successfully. Click on Finish to exit the wizard. Now its time to setup you hardware connections please refer to the next diagrams.
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.
*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.
**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).
Setting Up Security on a Network HomePlug device The Privacy Tab will allow users to use one primary computer to control the Network Password of all units on the home network. You will have to go back to the Main Tab first then find the DEK (Device Encryption Key) Key located on the bottom of each device. Enter this Key into the Device Password area. Click Add. This Device Key will then appear in the bottom window . Add all the DEK Keys for each unit in your house.
