Allowing Your Powerline Network to Coexist with a

HomePlug Network

This section only applies if your AC power lines host an existing HomePlug network, comprising

of devices such as NETGEAR XE102, WGX102, or XE104 adapters.

By default, HDX101 devices will automatically detect HomePlug devices and, if present, will

automatically switch the HDX101 network into a co-existence mode where the HDX101 devices

will not interfere with the HomePlug devices. If you experience difficulty with communications on

your HomePlug network, you can force the HDX101 network into co-existence mode as follows:

1. Make sure that all Powerline devices are plugged into AC power outlets.

2. Start the HDX101 Configuration Utility and ensure that the Main tab is selected.
