6.1.4 Setting Up a New Network with a New Adapter

This section shows you how to use your new powerline adapters to set up a new powerline

network separate to your existing network.

The figure below shows two powerline networks in a house. The first network (1) shows the

home computer connected to a printer and access to the Internet. The second network (2) has

no Internet access but with a media adapter such as the ZyXEL DMA-1100P you can use your

TV to watch movies and play games which are stored on a computer.

Figure 38 Add New Adapters to Make a Second Network

1 Connect your new powerline adapter and open the configuration utility as shown in

Section 6.1.4 on page 59. The screen shown below appears.

2 Type a Network Name that is different from the Network Name for your existing

network. Make sure you use the same new Network Name for all new adapters you

want to add to your new network.
