I completed all the steps in the quick installation guide, but my powerline adapter 

isn't connecting to any of my powerline devices. What should I do?

Please check your hardware installation.  Make sure that the TPL-101U is 

connected to your workstation, and make sure that the USB cable is working properly.  
Make sure that the TPL-102E is connected to either your workstation or your router, 
and make sure that the CAT 5 network patch cable is working properly. 

I have verified that my powerline device is properly connected to my 

workstation/router, but I cannot detect other powerline devices.  What should I do?

Please wait between 5~10 minutes to detect other powerline devices. In the PLC 

Configuration Utility, click the Network tab and click the Scan Powerline Network button.  
Continue to press this button until you detect your Powerline devices. 

I can detect my powerline devices on my powerline network, but I cannot connect 

to the Internet.  What should I do? 

Make sure that all powerline devices share the same network password.  Open the 

PLC Configuration Utility and click the Security tab.  Click Restore Default to use the 
default password.  Go to each powerline device, open the PLC Configuration Utility, 
and click Restore Default for each Powerline device.

All my powerline devices share the same network password, but I cannot connect 

to the Internet.  What should I do?

 Make sure that your Router is connected to the Internet.  If it is not connected to 

the Internet, double check your hardware settings and contact your ISP.  Double check 
and make sure that your Router or DHCP server is assigning IP Addresses to every 
workstation on your network.  

If you still encounter problems, please refer to the User's Guide CD-ROM or contact technical 
support.
