Move Powerline adapters between different
overlapping powerline networks
Note: Assuming all Powerline adapters are TRENDnet Powerline adapters and for
reference in the diagram and this procedure, the adapters will be labeled Adapter
A, B, C, D, and E. Adapters A, B, and C are currently connect together to form one
Powerline network and adapters D and E form another Powerline network. Adapter
B will be disconnected from adapters A and C and connected to adapters D and E.
1. Push and hold the Reset button on adapter B for 1 second and
release it. All LEDs will turn off and turn back on. This will make
adapter B settings to factory default.
2. Push and hold the Sync button on adapter D for 2 seconds and
release it. The Power LED will start blinking.
3. Within 2 minutes, push and hold the Sync button on adapter B for 2
seconds and release it. The Power LED will start blinking. This will
establish connectivity between adapter B, adapter D, and adapter E
by reconfiguring the network name of adapter B to match the
network name of adapter D and adapter E. All LEDs will turn off and
turn back on and the Powerline LED will turn on the when adapters
are connected.
