Basic Functioning
After you plug in the Ethernet bridge, the following sequence of events should occur:
1. When power is first applied, verify that the Power light is on.
2. After approximately 10 seconds, check the LEDs on the Ethernet bridge. The following should
occur:
a.
The power LED is solid green.
b. The blue HomePlug LED is lit.
c.
The Ethernet LED blinks.
If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.
Power Light Not On
•
Make sure that, if power to the AC power outlet is controlled by a wall switch, the wall switch
is in the on position.
•
Verify that the wall socket is live. To do this, disconnect the Ethernet bridge and plug in
another electrical product, such as a lamp or a hairdryer.
•
If the Power LED still does not come on, and you have confirmed the power outlet is live, you
have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.
