Resumen del manual


For example, be sure that you can access the Internet from a remote computer. If there is a problem, see Connecting a Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter to the Router on page 9. One way to test this is to install the Powerline Utility and use it to view all the computers connected by the Powerline AV Ethernet adapter. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network from unauthorized access. This is especially relevant in settings such as apartment buildings. See Understanding Powerline Network Security on page 11. Understanding Powerline Network Security A Powerline network consists of two or more Powerline adapters using the same network encryption key. Securing your network is crucial. By encrypting the information you send over the Powerline AV 200 Adapter, you help to keep it secure from hackers. If you do not set up security on your network, anyone nearby with a Powerline network can potentially use his or her connection to gain access to your network and information you send over the Internet. This is especially relevant in settings such as apartment buildings, office buildings, dorm rooms, and other more populated areas. Powerline devices connected to the same network must use an identical encryption key. The security used by Powerline AV 200 Adapters is similar to the SSID and encryption keys used in wireless networks, but you do not need software to configure Powerline AV 200 Adapters. There are two ways to secure your Powerline network. • Press the Security button located on your Powerline AV 200 Adapter to automatically generate a random encryption key. See Changing the Default Encryption on page 12. • Use the Powerline Utility to configure your Powerline network with an encryption key that you specify. If you are already using Powerline or HomePlug devices, then you will need to use the Powerline Utility. For more information, see Chapter 2, Using the XAV101v2 Powerline Utility. For information about using the Powerline Utility to configure Powerline security or to prioritize Powerline network traffic using the Quality of Service (QoS) feature, see Chapter 2. Note: For information about how to return the XAV101v2 Powerline AV 200 Adapter to its factory default settings, see Resetting to Factory Defaults on page 28. Changing the Default Encryption You can use the Security button to change the default encryption key and set a private encryption key instead. The default encryption key is HomePlugAV. To set a private encryption key: 1. Verify that all the Powerline AV 200 Adapters to be configured are plugged in. Do not press the Security button on the Powerline adapter until installation is complete and all adapters on your network are plugged in and communicating with each other. Pressing the Security button too soon can temporarily disable Powerline communication. If this should occur, reset the Powerline adapter to its factory default settings. See Resetting to Factory Defaults on page 28. 2. On the first Powerline AV 200 Adapter, press its Security button for 2 seconds. The power LED starts blinking after you release the button. The adapter automatically produces a new, randomly generated network encryption key that each Powerline AV 200 Adapter will use. At this point, the other adapters in your network cannot communicate with each other. 3. Within 2 minutes of pressing the Security button on the first adapter, press the Security button on the second adapter for 2 seconds. In order to pair the devices, you must press both buttons within 2 minutes. This securely configures your Powerline network with the same network encryption key. 4. If your network has more than 2 adapters, press the Security button on the additional adapter for 2 seconds, then press the Security button on any additional adapters in your existing network for 2 seconds. Both buttons must be pressed within 2 minutes. The adapters retain security settings even if they are unplugged. Note: An adapter can generate a private key only once. To replace a private key, first reset the adapter back to its factory defaults (see Resetting to Factory Defaults on page 28), then follow the steps in this section. 2. Using the XAV101v2 Powerline Utility This chapter explains how to install and use the Powerline Utility. The XAV101v2 Powerline Utility is compatible other XAV101v2 adapters and with the XAV1501 Powerline adapter. You can use the NETGEAR Powerline Utility to: • configure encryption for your Powerline network • perform diagnostics and monitor performance • set quality of service (QoS) features to prioritize Powerline network traffic • reset adapters to factory default settings Installing the XAV101v2 Powerline Utility This utility provides you with the option of setting your own unique encryption Powerline network encryption key, and prioritizing traffic passing through the Powerline network. To install the XAV101v2 Powerline Utility: 1. Go the NETGEAR home page at 2. Select the Home tab. 3. Select Prod...
