11 Introduction
devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1
Be ready for the technology of the future today
devolo Magic embodies the new generation of the
tried-and-tested Powerline technology (PLC) ba-
sed on the cutting-edge G.hn architecture. G.hn
was developed by the International Telecommuni-
cation Union (ITU) with ongoing development pro-
vided primarily by the HomeGrid Forum industry
association. devolo Magic products are certified
according to HomeGrid standards and are compa-
tible with other HomeGrid-certified products.
Like the HomePlug AV technology used in establis-
hed devolo dLAN devices, devolo Magic uses the
household mains supply for data transmission and
secures ideal performance and stability in locations
where network cables are not viable or desired
and/or the Wi-Fi frequently falls short due to cei-
lings and walls.
To set up a devolo Magic network, you need at
least two devolo Magic devices. For technical
reasons, devices from the devolo Magic series
are not compatible with dLAN devices.
2.2 Introduction to the
devolo Magic adapter:
Unpack – plug in – get started and be ready for
the new generation of tried-and-tested Powerline
technology:
bSpeed and stability – thanks to consistent data
transmission speed at up to 2400 Mbps over
distances of up to 500 meters, the
devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 promises entertain-
ment at the highest level.
bSecurity – with 128-bit AES Powerline encryp-
tion
bEnergy-efficiency – the integrated PowerSave
mode cuts energy consumption automatically
during low data traffic.
bA devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 transforms any
electrical socket in your household electrical
wiring into a Gigabit LAN Internet access point.
bIts integrated electrical socket can be used (like
a normal wall socket) to supply power to an
additional network device or a power strip.
bThe Gigabit LAN port on the
devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 lets you connect a sta-
tionary network device – such as a game con-
sole, television or media receiver – to your

Introduction 12
devolo Magic 2 LAN1-1
Internet access point over the Powerline net-
work (e.g. Internet router).
The devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 features
bOne Gigabit network connection
bOne indicator light
The LED status display can be disabled. You can
find more information about this in Chapter 4
Configuration or in the product manual for the
devolo Cockpit software available online at
www.devolo.com/cockpit.
bOne PLC/reset button (next to the network
connection)
bOne integrated electrical socket
2.3 Pairing
devolo Magic adapters that are in factory default
condition, i.e. have been purchased or successfully
reset (see Chapter Resetting a devolo Magic ad-
apter or removing it from a devolo Magic net-
work), automatically start to attempt to pair with
another devolo Magic adapter when reconnected
to the mains supply.

13 Introduction
devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1
Starting up a new devolo Magic network
After plugging the devolo Magic adapters into
available power sockets, a new devolo Magic net-
work is established automatically within 3 minutes.
Expanding an existing devolo Magic network
by adding another devolo Magic adapter
In order to use a new devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 in
your devolo Magic- network, first you have to
connect it to your existing devolo Magic adapters
devices as a network. This is accomplished by using
a shared password, which can be assigned in va-
rious ways:
bUsing devolo Cockpit or the
devolo Home Netwok App (see Chapter 3.4
Installation of devolo software)
bUsing the web interface (see Chapter 4.2.2
Powerline)
bUsing the PLC/reset button as described
below.
1To do so, plug the new devolo Magic adapter
into an available power socket and, for appro-
ximately 1 second, press the PLC/reset button
on a devolo Magic adapter in your existing
devolo Magic network.
2The new devolo Magic adapter pairs automati-
cally so no button needs to be pressed. The LED
of this adapter now also flashes white.
After a short time, the flashing LED beco-
mes a steady white light. The devolo Magic
adapter has been successfully integrated
into your existing devolo Magic network.
For each pairing operation, only one additional
devolo Magic adapter can be added at a time.
You can find detailed information about instal-
ling devolo Magic adapters in Chapter 3.3
Connecting the devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1.
Resetting a devolo Magic adapter or removing
it from a devolo Magic network
1To remove a devolo Magic adapter from your
devolo Magic network and successfully restore
its entire configuration to the factory default
settings, press and hold the reset button longer
than 10 seconds.
2Wait until the LED flashes white and then dis-
connect the devolo Magic adapter from the
mains supply.
Keep in mind that all settings that have already
been made will be lost!

zation.
***A devolo Magic adapter switches to standby
mode after approximately 10 minutes if no active
network device (e.g. computer) is connected to the
network interface. In this mode, the devolo Magic
adapter cannot be accessed over the electrical wi-
ring. As soon as the network device (e.g. computer)
connected to the network interface is switched on
again, your devolo Magic adapter can also be ac-
cessed over the electrical wiring again.
Check whether the adapter is connected to the
mains supply correctly and whether the pairing
operation has been carried out successfully. For
more information about this, refer to 3.3
Connecting the devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1.
2.3.2Network connection
You can use the network connection on the
devolo Magic adapter to connect it to a PC or tele-
vision using a standard network cable.
2.3.3Integrated electrical socket
Always use the integrated electrical socket on the
devolo Magic adapter when connecting other
consumers to the mains supply. In particular,
electronic devices with mains adapter can negati-
vely affect PLC performance.
The integrated mains filter in the devolo Magic ad-
apter filters any such external interference and re-
duces any impairment of PLC performance.

1Connect one devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 to your
Internet access device's network connection
(e.g. your Internet router).
2Connect the other devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 to
the network connection of your computer or
another network device using a network cable.
CAUTION! Tripping hazard
Lay the network cable in a barrier-free
manner and ensure that the electrical
socket and the connected network de-
vices are easily accessible
3Plug both devolo Magic adapters into available
power sockets within 3 minutes. As soon as the
LEDs on both adapters flash white at regular
intervals of 0.5 sec., they are ready to operate
and automatically start the process of establis-
hing an encrypted connection to each other
(see Chapter 2.3.1 Reading the indicator
light).
If the LEDs on both devolo Magic adapters
light up in white, then your
devolo Magic network has been set up ac-
cording to your individual specifications
and is protected from unauthorised access.

3.3.2Addition – Expanding an existing
network by adding another
devolo Magic adapter
Before you can use the devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 in
your devolo Magic network, first you have to
connect it to your existing devolo Magic adapters
as a network. This is accomplished by using a
shared password.
1Connect the devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 to the net-
work connection of your computer or another
network device using a network cable.
2Plug the devolo Magic 2 LAN 1-1 into an availa-
ble power socket. As soon as the LED flashes
white at regular intervals of 0.5 seconds, the
adapter is ready to operate but not yet integra-
ted into a devolo Magic network (see Chapter
2.3.1 Reading the indicator light).
3Within 3 minutes, press the PLC/reset button
on a devolo Magic adapter in your existing
devolo Magic network for approximately 1 sec.
The new devolo Magic adapter pairs automati-
cally so no button needs to be pressed. The LED
of this adapter now also flashes white.
If the LEDs light up white on both
devolo Magic adapters, the new adapter
has been successfully integrated into your
existing devolo Magic network.
For each pairing operation, only one additional
adapter can be added at a time.
3.3.3Changing the network password
A network password can also be changed in the
following ways:
bUsing the web interface of the devolo Magic
adapter (see Chapter 4.2.2 Powerline)
or
bUsing devolo Cockpit or the
devolo Home Network App. For more infor-
mation, refer to the following chapter.
