Tp-Link TL-PA4010 KIT V3 [10/19] Secure your powerline network by pairing

Chapter 2

Use Your Powerline Adapter

2. 3. Secure Your Powerline Network by Pairing

All powerline adapters share some common factory settings, and can communicate

with one another. If you want your powerline adpaters to communicate only with your

own powerline adapters, you should pair them. Thus a secured powerline network is

formed and other powerline adapters can no longer join your powerline network without

being paired.

Note: You can only pair two devices at a time.

Secure my powerline network and prevent other powerline

devices from being added to my network.

For example, I’ve extended my network using the Plug & Play

method. Now I want to secure my network.

1. Verify all powerline devices’ Power LEDs

are solid on.

Tip: We recommend that you plug in your powerline devices near each

other, or as close to each other as possible when pairing. Your settings will

not be affected. The devices can be relocated to where they are needed

once pairing is complete.

2. Press the Pair button on one of the powerline devices for 1

second. Its Power LED

starts blinking.

3. Within two minutes, press the Pair button on another

powerline adapter for 1 second. Its Power LED

starts

blinking. When the Powerline LED

turns on, the pairing

process is complete.
