• How do I pair my Devolo Magic adapters?

  Plug the new adapter into a wall socket. Within 3 minutes, press the PLC/encryption button on the side of one of the adapters in your existing network. The LEDs will flash white and then turn solid once pairing is automatic.

• Are Devolo Magic adapters compatible with older dLAN devices?

  No, Devolo Magic adapters use the G.hn standard, which is not compatible with the older dLAN Powerline standard (HomePlug AV). They can exist on the same power grid but will not connect to each other.

• How do I reset a Devolo adapter to factory settings?

  Press and hold the reset button (often inside a small hole) for approximately 10 seconds while the device is plugged in, until the encryption LED flashes or limits clearly indicate a restart.

• Where can I find the Wi-Fi password for my Devolo adapter?

  The default Wi-Fi key (password) is printed on the type label on the back or bottom of the device housing. You can also view and change it via the Devolo Cockpit app or web interface.
