CHAPTER 6

Powerline Network Setup

Tutorial

Use this tutorial to expand your existing powerline network.

6.1 Overview

After setting up your first home powerline network (instructions for that are in the Quick Start

Guide for your ZyXEL powerline adapter) you may want to extend the network or create a

new one by adding additional powerline adapters. This tutorial shows you the following.

• How to start up your new powerline adapter. You need to do this before you can begin the

next sections.

• How to make your existing powerline network bigger by adding new powerline adapters.

• How to make a new network separate from your existing network with new powerline

adapters.

• How to make a new, separate powerline network with the powerline adapters you have.

The tutorial uses the PLA-4xx Series Configuration Utility to set up your powerline adapter.

If you haven’t already installed the utility, see Chapter 2 on page 23 for instructions. If you do

not have the CD with the utility, the utility software is also available for download at

www.zyxel.com. Navigate to the powerline products section of the ZyXEL website to find this

software. Follow the instructions provided by the software to install it on your computer.

See the product specifications in the User’s Guide for a list of hardware and software

compatible with the utility.

" The PLA-4xx in this tutorial is an example only. Your powerline adapter may

be different.
