B. Connect the other end of the
cable to the computer or other
device that you want to add to
the network.
NOTE: You can connect additional computers or other network
devices to the remaining Ethernet ports of the Adapter.
C. Connect the power cord to the
Power port.
D. Plug the other end into an
electrical outlet.
NOTE: Because the Adapter sends data over the power lines
of your home, Linksys recommends that you plug the Adapter
directly into an electrical outlet. The Adapter has its own power
filter to help protect against surges.
