or wireless networks by extending your signal using the electrical wiring.
Plug two or more compatible Powerline 500 devices into electrical outlets
to create or extend your wired home network. In addition to Powerline
500 devices, you can add Homeplug AV certified adapters, for a total of up
to 16 devices. For a complete list of Homeplug AV certified devices, go to

You can use the Pick A Plug feature to choose the best combination of
outlets.
You can use the Security button on each Powerline device to secure the
links between the Powerline devices.
