Password

The default network password of PLA-4xxs is “HomePlugAV”. The PLA-4xxs use the

same network password to recognize and communicate with each other over the

powerline network. If you change the password of one device on the network, it will no

longer be recognized as part of that network.

If you change the network password, make sure you change the password for all of

the powerline adapters that you want to be part of your powerline network.

The network password can be from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters in length; spaces

are not allowed.

Save Click this to apply your changes. The new Network Password is applied to the

selected powerline adapter.

Note: You must enter the correct DAK password for the selected

powerline adapter before you can make changes to it.
