Be ready for the technology of the future today
devolo Magic embodies the new generation of the triedand-tested Powerline technology (PLC) based on the cutting-edge G.hn architecture. G.hn was developed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) with ongoing
development provided primarily by the HomeGrid Forum
industry association. devolo Magic products are certified
according to HomeGrid standards and are compatible with
other HomeGrid-certified products.
Like the HomePlug AV technology used in established devolo dLAN devices, devolo Magic uses the household
mains supply for data transmission and secures ideal performance and stability in locations where network cables
1 (= yes)
are not viable or desired and/or the WiFi frequently falls
short due to ceilings and walls.
To set up a devolo Magic network, you need at least
two devolo Magic devices. For technical reasons, devices from the devolo Magic series are not compatible with dLAN devices.
2.2 The devolo Magic 1 WiFi
A brief introduction to the devolo Magic adapter:
Unpack– plug in – get started and be prepared for the
new generation of the tried-and-tested Powerline
technology and innovative mesh WiFi with swiftness
and stability:
Powerline
At speeds up to 1200 Mbps
Over distances up to 400 metres
Security – with 128-bit AES Powerline encryption
Mesh WiFi
At speeds up to 1200 Mbps
Four antennas cover the 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi frequen-
cies at the same time and use the full extent of the
entire 5 GHz frequency band (Dynamic FrequencySelection, DFS).
devolo Magic 1 WiFi
Introduction 12
Air-time fairness – Quicker WiFi devices take priority
in the network.
Band steering – Use of the optimum frequency band
(2.4 and 5 GHz frequency band)
Roaming – Quickly and seamlessly connect to the
strongest WiFi access point
Security – with WPA2 for wireless ac ("IEEE 802.11a/
b/g/n/ac" WiFi high-speed standards)
Convenient additional functions such as parental
controls, guest WiFi, time control and Config Sync are
integrated in the devolo Magic 1 WiFi.
Efficiency– The integrated PowerSave mode reduces
energy consumption automatically at low data traf-fic.
The 2 network connectors on the
devolo Magic 1 WiFi let you connect stationary network devices—such as a game console, TV or media
receiver—to your Internet access point over the
Powerline network (e.g. Internet router).
Its integrated electrical socket can be used like a
normal wall socket to supply power to an additional
network device or a power strip.
The devolo Magic 1 WiFi features
An integrated electrical socket,
A PLC button with LED status display,
A WiFi button with LED status display,
Four internal WiFi antennas,
Two network connectors,
A reset button (next to the network connectors).
The LED status displays can be disabled. You can find
more information about this in Chapter 4 Networkconfiguration or in the product manual for the
devolo Cockpit software available online at
www.devolo.com/cockpit

2.3 Pairing – Establishing a PLC connection
devolo Magic adapters that are in the factory default condition, i.e. have been recently purchased or successfully reset (see Chapter 3.5 Removing the devolo Magicadapter from a PLC network), automatically start to attempt to pair (establish a PLC connection) with
anotherdevolo Magic adapter when reconnected to the
mains supply.

Starting up a new devolo Magic PLC network
After plugging the devolo Magic adapters into available
power sockets, a new devolo Magic network is established
automatically within 3 minutes.
Introduction 14
Expanding an existing devolo Magic PLC network by
adding another devolo Magic adapter
In order to use a new devolo Magic 1 WiFi in your
devolo Magic- network, first you have to connect it to your
existing devolo Magic adapters devices as a network. This
is accomplished by using a shared PLC password, which
can be assigned in various ways:
Using devolo Cockpit or the devolo app (see Chapter
3.4 Installation of devolo software)
Using the web interface (see Chapter 4.5 Powerline)
Using the PLC button as described below.
To do so, plug the new devolo Magic adapter into an
available power socket and, for approximately
1 second, press the PLC button on a devolo Magic
adapter in your existing devolo Magic network.
For each pairing operation, only one additional
devolo Magic adapter can be added at a time.

Within 3 minutes, press the PLC button on the
devolo Magic adapter that you want to add to your
existing devolo Magic network. The LED of this adapter now also flashes white.
After a short time, the flashing LED becomes a
steady white light. The devolo Magic adapter has
been successfully integrated into your existing
devolo Magic network.
