The solution is compliant with IEEE1901 and Homeplug AV, allowing hassle free compatibility with existing Homeplug AV devices and other suppliers of IEEE1901 PLC devices.

Setup Instructions if being used to extend the range on an existing router instead of the default settings for a wired network.
1. The DCHP will be enabled on all the wireless plugs by default but you only need one dchp running on your network at the gateway (the existing wireless router in this case) as this is the gateway to the internet.
2 Find out the ip address of your existing router, something along the lines of 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.2 etc and then switch off your existing router.
3 Plug the wireless homeplug in first before making any other connection, scan for this wirelessly with a computer, and select the powerline network and connect.
4. Open an internet browser on the connected computer and type 192.168.1.2 into the address bar, this will bring up the setup page for the wireless homeplug.
Username: admin
Password: password
5. On the left hand menu select LAN>Lan Settings. In the IP address box enter the address with the same first three sets of digits as your existing router, e.g. 192.168.1. or 192.168.0. etc but set the last three digits to 150 so you end up with something like 192.168.1.150 or 192.168.0.150 etc also tick the DCHP server disable button, and press submit.
6. Click the management menu item in the left hand menu and select save to flash. Before this step you can also set the security on the plug if required in the wireless>security menu item.
7. Give the homeplug a few minutes to reboot and settle down, now plug the standard homeplug into your router and switch the homeplug and router on.
8. The setup is complete.
