The figure below shows an example Powerline home network connected to the

Internet.

Figure 19 Priority Settings

•Device A is a printer and does not handle traffic with high importance, so the

Powerline adapter connected to it can be set to low priority.

•Device B is a file server, delivering audio or movie files to other users on the

network. The Powerline adapter attached to it should have a medium setting.

•Device C, a home computer which connects to the Internet, can receive a

normal priority setting as it usually sends simple requests for data. For

example, when you surf the Internet, your computer sends requests to open

web pages.

•Device D is a modem attached to the Internet. It should receive a high priority

setting if you want faster downloading through your network.

• Although device E receives audio or movie files, it does not send a lot of traffic,

so the Powerline adaptor attached to it can be set to a low priority.
