The Solwise HomePlug AV offers SimpleConnect - a simpler way to set up your HomePlug network. With just the press of a button, HomePlug AV devices can create or join a secure network. No computer is needed. What’s more, this HomePlug comes with a power-pass-through feature, allowing the same socket it is occupying to be freed up for other devices. To ensure maximum security, the button on each HomePlug AV device in the network must be pushed within 2 minutes of the first one being pushed. More units can be added later, though - details are in the manual. You do not need to reset the whole HomePlug AV network. These units are sold as singles, you will require at least two to create your network. All versions of the AV products will talk to each other so long as they are on version 2 firmware or newer.
