Just plug one XAV101 adapter into an available electrical socket near your router, and connect your router to it. Then plug a second XAV101 adapter (not included) into any electrical socket that's located near the device you want to network. When you connect your device into the XAV101, it will be connected to your network. It's as simple as that. There's no software to install, no passwords to remember, and no configuration whatsoever. And you can easily create more network connections throughout your home by simply installing additional adapters. Please note that this product comes with only one XAV101 adapter.
