Figure 2-14: VLAN Configuration Page
A VLAN is an administrative grouping of network devices that is logically
segmented, by functions, project teams, or applications rather than a
physical or geographical basis. VLANs provide the segmentation services
traditionally provided by routers in LAN configurations. For example, all
workstations and servers used by a particular workgroup team can be
connected to the same VLAN, regardless of their physical connections to the
network. In this way, you can use VLANs to reconfigure the network through
software rather than physically unplugging and moving devices or wires.

2. Click Powerline in the Web Management utility menu bar. The PowerLine
Device Scan page appears (see Figure 2-19).
Figure 2-19: Powerline Device Scan Page
Scanning Powerline Devices
The Powerline Device Scan page shows all Powerline devices on your

NOTE:
We recommend that you change the default network password on all
your PlugLAN 8660 devices. Changing the network password prevents neighbors
or outsiders from accessing your network. However, it also requires you to
configure your other Powerline devices to use the same password.
To change the Powerline network password:

Troubleshooting
This chapter contains troubleshooting suggestions you will find
helpful in the unlikely event you encounter a problem with your
PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet Adapter.
PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet
Adapter is Not Working
1. Confirm that the PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet
Adapter is plugged into a working AC outlet.
2. Plug a device that is known to work (such as a lamp) into the
outlet to confirm that the outlet is working.
3. Verify that the AC outlet is not controlled by a wall switch,
which can inadvertently remove power from the outlet.
Wired Connections are Not Working
1. Verify that the Ethernet LAN cable is connected securely to
your PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet Adapter and
the attached device.
2. See whether an event was generated in the system log (see
Viewing System Logs on page 2-6).
You Cannot Access the Web Management
Utility
1. If you changed the default IP address of the Web Management
utility, enter the new IP address in your Web browser to access
the Web Management utility and make sure your PC is on the
same subnet as your PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet
Adapter.
2. If you restored your configuration from a binary configuration
file (see Restoring Backup Settings on page 2-10), enter the
IP address associated with the configuration file

Web Management Utility Times Out Too Quickly
By default, the Web Management utility remains open for 3 minutes. If you
want to change this time interval, change the auto-logout time on the System
Password page (see Changing the Auto-Logout Time on page 2-6).
One of the LEDs Does Not Behave as Expected
1. Be sure you understand the normal behavior of the LED (see Appendix A).
2. Disconnect and reconnect the PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV Ethernet
Adapter to the AC outlet.
3. If the problem continues, please contact Asoka Technical Support (see
Technical Support on page iii).
You Forgot the Login Password
1. The default case-sensitive password is welcome. You can change this
password to one that is more meaningful using the Web Management
utility. For more information, see Changing the User ID and Login
Password on page 2-5.
2. If you forget the password, return the PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV
Ethernet Adapter to its factory default settings (see Returning to
Factory Default Settings on page 2-8).
CAUTION! If you return the PlugLAN 8660 SmartBridge AV
Ethernet Adapter to factory default settings, the Adapter discards all
custom settings you set and returns to the settings that were in effect
when you removed the bridge from the box.
NOTE:
All Powerline devices on your Powerline network must use the same
Powerline password (NEK). If you encounter a problem, please contact Asoka
Technical Support (see Technical Support on page iii).
