2. Avoid using the PowerLine adapters in an electrical outlet that is located near an appliance that uses a lot of
power such as a washer, dryer, refrigerator, microwave, hair dryer, or air conditioning system.
3. Plug the PowerLine adapters in the same room in order to verify whether your home's electrical wiring is
suitable. Once configured you may place the PowerLine adapters to the location of your choice.
