Powerline Adapter in a Home Network
You can use Powerline AV 200 Adapters to extend your Ethernet network anywhere in your
home using your existing electrical power lines.
Ethernet
cables
Here, an Ethernet cable connects the
router to the Powerline network.
In another room, an Ethernet cable connects
a gaming console to the Powerline network.
Powerline communication
Figure 3. Powerline network with two Powerline adapters
For best performance, plan the location of your Powerline devices (to make a Powerline
network, you need at least two Powerline devices):
Use an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch to avoid someone
unknowingly turning off the power to the outlet.
Do not plug in Powerline products to a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector as
this might prevent them from working correctly, or reduce the network performance.
Avoid plugging Powerline products into electrical outlets located near an appliance that
uses a lot of power, such as a washer or dryer, or a refrigerator. This could potentially
prevent the adapters from working correctly, or reduce network performance.
Different Powerline adapter models can share the network. All Powerline NETGEAR AV
products (models XAV101, XAV1004, XAV2001, XAV2501, and XAVN2001) are compatible.
8 | Chapter 1. Getting Started
Powerline AV 200 Nano Adapter XAV2101
To set up your Powerline network:
1. Make sure that your home router is up and running and that Ethernet wired connections
are working.
2. Install the first Powerline adapter based on the installation instructions that came in the
package.
3. Install the second Powerline adapter, which finds the adapter you just installed. The two
Powerline devices form a Powerline network.
4. Install any additional Powerline adapters that you plan to use.
5. Test to make sure that the computer or peripheral can access the Powerline network.
For example, on a computer, use the Internet. Another way to test this is to install the
Powerline Utility and use it to view all devices on the Powerline network.
6. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network from unauthorized access,
especially in settings such as apartment buildings. See
Powerline Network Security .
Powerline Network Security
A Powerline network consists of two or more Powerline adapters using the same network
encryption key. Securing your network protects the information you send over the Powerline
network from unwanted access. 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 populated areas.
There are two ways to secure your Powerline network.
Use the Security button to automatically generate a random encryption key.
Use the Powerline Utility to specify an encryption key for your Powerline network. If you
already have a Powerline network, you need to use the Powerline Utility, which is located
on your Resource CD. See
Chapter 2, Powerline Utility.
To return the Powerline AV 200 Adapter to its factory default settings, press its Factory
Reset button for 1 second, then release.
Use the Security Button to Set the Encryption Key
Note: An adapter can generate a private key only once. If you want to
replace a private key, first reset the adapters to their factory settings.
To do this either press the Reset button for 1 second, then release;
or use the Powerline Utility factory defaults feature (see
Reset a
Device to Factory Settings on page 15).
Chapter 1. Getting Started | 9
Powerline AV 200 Nano Adapter XAV2101
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.
1. Verify that all the Powerline adapters to be configured are plugged in.
WARNING!
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 (press the Reset button for 1 second,
then release).
2. Press the Powerline AV 200 Adapter Security button for 2 seconds.
The Power LED starts blinking after you release the button.
The adapter automatically creates a new, randomly generated network encryption key
that each Powerline adapter on the network 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 Powerline AV 200 Adapter, press the
security button on the second adapter for 2 seconds.
In order to pair the devices, you need to 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 two adapters, press the Security button on the next adapter
for 2 seconds, then push the Security button on any additional adapters in your network for
2 seconds. The adapters retain security settings even if they are unplugged.

you expect, it could be that a Powerline adapter is in power saving mode or is set to use a
different encryption key.
Power saving mode. You might see a message at the bottom of the screen regarding the
power saving feature. If a unit goes into power saving mode, the Powerline Utility does
not find it. Keeping a connected Ethernet cable plugged into the device keeps it active so
that it does not go in to power saving mode.
Encryption keys are different. To fix this, you can do one of the following:
- Reset your Powerline adapters to their factory settings and default encryption key.
Then set the encryption for all of your Powerline adapters.
- Connect your computer to each Powerline device and set up the network encryption
key for one adapter at a time.
