Quick Setup Guide

Important Setup Advice

∞ Power Line Adapter (PLA) units may only be used on the same electrical circuit in a home. Most homes

typically have one circuit for lighting and another for electrical outlets, but large homes may have two

circuits for electrical outlets.

∞ Using a double adaptor or a power board in your setup is not recommended.

∞ Each PLA unit requires at least 5cm clearance below the power socket to allow for an ethernet cable. It is

not suitable for very low mounted wall sockets.

Setting up with a Power Line Adapter

Your two Power Line Adapter units are already paired with each other. If you run into any issues, check out our

PLEASE NOTE: You can use a Power Line Adapter to connect any ethernet-compatible device;

we’ve shown you an iiNet TV with Fetch set top box as an example.

Setting up with a Power Line Adapter

1. Pick up one of your Power Line Adapter (PLA) units and

plug one end of an ethernet cable into the LAN port.

2. Plug the other end of the ethernet cable into an

available LAN port on your modem.

3. Plug the PLA unit into an electrical outlet.

Using a double adaptor or a power board is not

recommended.

4. Pick up your other PLA unit and plug one end of an

ethernet cable into the LAN port.

5. Plug the other end into the ethernet port on the

back of the device you wish to connect to your

modem (e.g. iiNet TV set top box).

6. If you haven’t already done so, make sure the

electrical outlets used for both PLA units are

turned on. The PWR (power) lights on each unit will

illuminate.

7. All done! When both PLA units have a connection

with each other, the LAN lights will turn on and

remain solid.
