Testing can also be achieved using two modems if you have knowledge of the phase
distribution within the building.

5.3.2 Install Modems

Plug Modems in desired locations in each room or unit. Test to be sure connectivity has
been established by connecting a computer and making sure all four lights on the modem
are lit.

If the AC Power light is not lit, you
do not have AC power to your
Modem. Choose another AC outlet.

If the Powerline light is not lit, you
are not connected to the Powerline
network. Try another outlet,
preferably closer to the breaker box
where your electrical power enters
the residence or business. You can use a wireless router at the Motorola Powerline
Modem location to re-establish a connection to the preferred computer location.

If the Ethernet to PC light is not lit, you do not have Ethernet connection to your computer
or router. Check that the Ethernet cable is seated correctly in the Modem jack and in your
PC or router. If that doesn’t help, call your service provider.

If the Registration light is not lit and the other lights are lit, the modem is not registering
on the network.
