Preface
Thank you for placing your trust in this devolo
product.
By purchasing the dLAN Highspeed Ethernet II, you have chosen a latest-gen-
eration high-speed dLAN device that networks your computers and extends the
Internet through the entire house. The dLAN technology uses the household
power grid as a "long network cable"—with a range of up to 200 m (656")!
Thus you can use it to set up a home network in no time at all without routing
additional cables. Resistances such as walls or ceilings are likewise unimportant.
The power save mode and streamlined 3-LED design complete the user-friendly
profile of the dLAN Highspeed Ethernet II.
Surfing on the Internet is fast and secure with transfer rates of up to 85 Mbps
and DESpro encryption with the dLAN Highspeed Ethernet II. It is also fully com-
patible with first-generation high-speed dLAN adapters (14 or 85 Mbps).

rity information and our warranty conditions can be found in Chapter 4 and
