The adapter enters power saving mode, and the Power LED turns amber . • The Ethernet LED lights up when you connect a powered-on Ethernet device to at least one Ethernet port. • The Powerline LED turns on when the adapter detects at least one other compatible Powerline device. The Pick A Plug feature lets you pick the electrical outlet with the strongest link rate, indicated by the color displayed by the Powerline LED: - Green: Link rate > 80 Mbps (Best) - Amber: Link rate > 50 and < 80 Mbps (Better) - Red: Link rate < 50 Mbps (Good) Compatible NETGEAR Powerline Devices To create a Powerline network you need at least two compatible Powerline devices. Your Powerline adapter can share a Powerline network with these compatible NETGEAR devices: XAV101, XAV1004, XAV2001, XAV2101, XAV1101, XAV1301, XAV1601, XAV2501, XAV5001, XAV5501, XAV5601, XAV5004, and XAVN2001. For a complete list of HomePlug AV certified devices, go to Install Your Powerline Adapter The ports use Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize traffic. Port 1 on the left is the high- priority video port. You can plug a power strip into the filtered outlet, but do not plug your Powerline adapter into a power strip. The filtered AC socket removes some electrical noise. Plugging a nearby device into the filtered AC socket improves performance. You can set up a new Powerline network with your XAV2602 and a compatible Powerline device, or you can add your XAV2602 to an existing Powerline network. Set up a new Powerline network: 1. Obtain at least one more Powerline device that is compatible with the XAV2602. 2. Plug the Powerline AV+ 200-compatible adapter into an electrical outlet, and plug the XAV2602 adapter into another electrical outlet. • The Power LED on the XAV2602 lights up. • If both of the devices you connected are powered on and establish communication, the Powerline LED on the XAV2602 lights up. 3. If you have more than one compatible adapter, plug them into other electrical outlets. 4. User Ethernet cables (one is included in the package) to connect your equipment to the Ethernet ports on the adapter. • Port 1 is for high priority traffic used by devices such as gaming consoles. • Port 2 is for devices with lower priority traffic. You can use both ports or only one port. The Powerline LED turns on for each Powerline adapter when they detect each other. The devices automatically form a Powerline network. Add the adapter to a secure Powerline network: Your Powerline network is already secured if you used the Security button or the Powerline Utility to set up security. 1. Make sure that the Powerline devices you already use are compatible to the XAV2602. Plug the XAV2602 into another electrical outlet. 2. Press the Security button on one of your existing Powerline adapters for 2 seconds and release the button. Then within 2 minutes, press the Security button on the XAV2602 for 2 seconds and release the button. The Power LED on the XAV2602 starts to blink as security is setting up. The Powerline LED turns on for each Powerline adapter when they detect each other. They automatically form a Powerline network. 3. Use Ethernet cables (one is included in the package) to connect your equipment to the Ethernet ports on the adapter. • Port 1 is for high-priority traffic used by devices such as gaming consoles. • Port 2 is for devices with lower-priority traffic. You can use both ports or only one port. Add the adapter to a Powerline network that has not been secured: 1. Check to make sure that the Powerline devices you already use are compatible. 2. Plug the XAV2602 adapter into another electrical outlet. The XAV2602 will start to communicate with other Powerline devices (indicated by the linking Powerline LED). 3. Use Ethernet cables (one is included in the package) to connect your equipment to the Ethernet ports on the adapter. • Port 1 is for high-priority traffic used by devices such as gaming consoles. • Port 2 is for devices with lower-priority traffic. You can use both ports or only one port. 4. NETGEAR recommends that you secure your Powerline network to protect your personal information and media 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...
