Chapter 6: Troubleshooting
If your powerline adapters have difficulty communicating with each other, try the
following procedures:

Try power cycling the unit by unplugging it from the electric outlet for 10 seconds and
plugging it in again.

Use a pin to hold the reset button down for 2 seconds on each unit you are trying to
connect. The units will reset and attempt to establish a connection using factory default
settings.

Try plugging the powerline adapter into an adjacent electric outlet.

Powerline adapters work better when plugged directly into an electric outlet. Using a
power strip or surge protector may degrade network performance or completely block
network signals.

This powerline adapter should not be used on GFI protected electric outlets, as some
outlets will filter out the powerline signal.

This powerline adapter should not be used in areas with excessive heat.

Certain florescent or incandescent lights are noise sources that can degrade
performance.

If your building has more than one circuit breaker box, your powerline adapters may not
be able to establish a connection across different circuit breaker boxes. In such cases, try
establishing a connection across different circuit breaker boxes by linking two powerline
adapters together with an Ethernet cable.
