2. Connect the FRITZ!Powerline 530E to your router using the provided network cable.
3. Plug the second FRITZ!Powerline 530E adapter (or another compatible Powerline adapter) into a wall outlet in the room where you want to extend your network.
4. Connect your network-compatible device (e.g., PC, game console, smart TV) to the second FRITZ!Powerline 530E using a network cable.

2. Emparejamiento automático

FRITZ!Powerline adapters are typically factory-paired and encrypted with AES 128-bit for security. If you are using multiple FRITZ!Powerline devices, they should automatically connect. If they do not connect, or if you are adding new adapters to an existing network, you may need to pair them manually:

• Ensure all FRITZ!Powerline adapters are plugged into wall outlets.
• On one adapter, press and hold the "Connect" or "Security" button (refer to the device for exact button location, usually indicated by a house icon or similar) for approximately 1 second. The Powerline LED will flash.
• Within 2 minutes, press the "Connect" or "Security" button on the other adapter for approximately 1 second.
• Both adapters will now pair. The Powerline LED on both devices should light up continuously once connected.
