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 XAV1601 Nano, 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 their
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 XAV1601 Nanos is similar to the SSID and encryption keys used
in wireless networks, but you do not need software to configure Powerline XAV1601 Nanos.
