Note:
The configuration utility will allow you to add security to your powerline network by
providing you with the ability to change the default network name and create your
own personal network name for your powerline network. The utility can also help
you troubleshoot connectivity between powerline adapters by verifying the network
name. Please refer to the User's Guide on the TPL-402E/TPL-402E2K CD-ROM
for instructions on installing and using the utility.

2. How to Install

The example diagram shows a typical powerline network configuration in a home
environment with 3 powerline adapters installed in different rooms. The orange line
represents the powerline connectivity established through your home's electrical system
and the blue lines represent Cat. 5, 5e, 6 Ethernet connectivity to your network enabled
appliances such as a computer, router, or IP set top box connected to your television.
Note:
1. DO NOT install the TPL-402E until instructed to do so.
2. DO NOT plug the TPL-402E into a surge protector or power strip.
3. Avoid connecting the TPL-402E into an outlet that has appliances (e.g. refrigerators,
washer and dryer) plugged in.
4. In order for the TPL-402E adapters to link to each other, each unit must be on the
same electrical system.
5. It is not recommended to use this product on electrical systems that use AFCI circuit
breakers or plugged into GFI protected outlets as this may cause performance
degradation or loss in connectivity.
6. A maximum of 16 TPL-402E can be networked
7. Assuming that the TPL-402E adapters are configured with the default settings, to
create a powerline network, simply connect all TPL-402E adapters to wall outlets that
are on the same electrical system. No additional configuration in the utility is necessary.
8. The network name must be the same on all powerline adapters in order to establish
connectivity. If the network name is not the same on all powerline adapters, the
adapters will NOT establish connectivity. The default network name for the TPL-402E
is “HomePlugAV”.

Below is an example showing how to create a Powerline network using the
TPL-402E/TPL-402E2K and your existing router to share Internet.
1. Plug a TPL-402E into an available power outlet.
This TPL-402E should be located within the
reach of the router's network cable.
2. Connect a network cable from the TPL-402E to
an available LAN network port on your router
(e.g. TEW-673GRU).
3. Plug a second TPL-402E into an available
power outlet where your remote computer or
network appliances (e.g. Game Console, IP Set
box, network enabled TV, etc.) are located.

5. Verify that the PWR (Power), PL (Powerline)
and ETH (Ethernet Link/Act) LEDs are on for
both TPL-402E adapters.

3. LEDs and Buttons
The Gigabit Ethernet/Network Port and Reset buttton are located at the bottom of the device.
Note:
1. Please refer to the User's Guide on the TPL-402E/TPL-402E2K's User's Guide CD for detailed
explanations of each LED and button.
2. The following factors may affect the powerline network’s connection quality:
a. Noise – Generated by appliances that are connected to your electrical system through power
outlets that have high power consumption requirements. (e.g. Microwaves, ovens, blow dryer,
iron, dishwasher, etc.) The quality of your household electrical wiring may also cause
additional noise on your electrical system.
b. Distance – Long lengths of electrical wiring through your electrical system between
connected powerline adapters.

I have verified that my Powerline device is connected to my workstation, but I cannot
detect other Powerline devices. What should I do?
1.Verify that you are using Cat. 5, Cat. 5e or Cat. 6 Ethernet network cables for each
TPL-402E adapter.
2.Verify that the power outlet of the TPL-402E/TPL-402E2K is plugged into is on the same
electrical power distribution and/or circuit breaker box.
3.If you are still not able to establish connectivity after performing the above steps, please
reset both of the TPL-402E adapters to factory default. The default network name/key is
“HomePlugAV”. The Reset button is located on the bottom of the TPL-402E.
1. With a pin or paperclip, press and hold the reset button for 1 second and release it.
The LEDs will turn off and turn back on.
2. To verify connectivity, the Powerline LED will become solid when the powerline
adapters establish connectivity. The TPL-402E powerline adapters must have the
same network name/key in order to connect to each other.
Note: If you have problems resetting the device, unplug the powerline adapter(s) from
the power outlet, wait 15 seconds and plug the adapter(s) back into the outlet, then
repeat the reset procedure.
2. I can detect my Powerline devices on my Powerline network, but I cannot connect to the
Internet. What should I do?
Assuming that the Powerline network is connected to a router:
Make sure you are not connecting the device into a surge protector or power strip.
2. Make sure that your Router is connected to the Internet and one of the Router's LAN ports
is connected to the TPL-402E's network port. Check both TPL-402E and the router's
network port LED for positive connection status.
3. Make sure your computer's TCP/IP settings are set to Obtain an IP address automatically
(see the steps below).

The TPL-402E is not backwards compatible with HomePlug 1.0 or HomePlug Turbo.
5. Do I need to reconfigure my TPL-402E after I hit the reset button?
No, the TPL-402E should automatically establish connection once both units are reset to
default settings.
