Install the XEPS103 PowerLine Encryption Utility

(Highly Recommended)

The utility gives you the option of setting a unique encryption PowerLine network password.

Important features:

The encryption password is not case-sensitive.

Each device must be set to exactly the same encryption password—if they are to communicate
on the same network. PowerLine devices on different networks will not be able to
communicate.

A default button resets the encryption password to the default password (HomePlug).

The encryption password can protect your network from unauthorized access through the
PowerLine network.

A device password is printed on each NETGEAR PowerLine product. This is not the network
password, but you are required to enter it if you are setting the network password with another
Powerline extender device.
