Turn LEDs Off or On

For each device in your Powerline network, you can turn the LEDs off or on. This feature is a 
toggle. You can turn off LEDs if they are on, or turn them on if they are currently turned off.



On the Powerline Utility main screen, click the Powerline device icon.

On the pop-up menu, select Turn LED off.

A screen displays advising you that connectivity will be temporarily lost while the LEDs are 
being reset.

Set the Powerline Encryption Key

Powerline devices that share the same Powerline network have to use the same encryption 
key. The factory default encryption key is HomePlugAV.

In locations such as apartment buildings or office buildings, others might share the same 
electrical power lines that you use for your Powerline network. To protect your Powerline 
network from unwanted access, you can customize the encryption key for your Powerline 
devices. Make sure that you set up exactly the same encryption key for all of your Powerline 
devices so that they can communicate with each other.

You use the Security screen in the Powerline Utility to set encryption keys. If you customize 
the encryption key and then forget what it is, you can return your Powerline devices to their 
factory default Powerline encryption key of HomePlugAV.
