ButtonsThe PlugLinK-ETH-500 device has two hardware push buttons: • FW RST button – Resets the PlugLink-ETH-500 back to factory default settings. Press and hold the button with a pin or sharp object for about 2 seconds until you see the lights on the device flash briefly. • SECURITY button – All PlugLink-ETH-500 devices have a default password Network Encryption Key (NEK) set to “HomePlugAV” allowing them to communicate to each other. The SECURITY button allows you to set a devices’ password to a randomized Network Encryption Key (NEK) for maximum security. You can then set other devices to the same NEK by using their SECURITY button. Only units with the same NEK can communicate to each other.
