The first case CPL is passive, so nothing to do except plug the box and the socket. The wifi access point by cons must be configured as the wireless security is configured by default to "no", which allows to connect directly to the access point to configure it. But once logged on, it falls on the pop-up window Netgear Genie asking if you want to change the language for the configuration interface. In Mac OS X, you can not go further! ! ! ! It is therefore around this evil genius in finding the IP address of the access point (via the list of equipment connected to the box) and type its IP address in the browser address bar, followed by "/index.htm "(eg 192.168.0.35/index.htm) and there miracle accessed (finally!) the web configuration interface, very simple and well built elsewhere. For box users, consider disabling the DHCP netgear access point if you do not want to have pbs. If using multiple boxes XWN5001 in one house, give them different SSID names and change the channel to avoid interference. FYI, the only usable channels simultaneously without interference by France are the channels 1.7 and 13. Last detail: the fashion Up to 54 Mb / sec is much more stable than the other two (154 and 300 Mb / sec). If your ADSL and / or flow through the CPL is For DIYers: If you remove the access point to clean dry air (there bcp heated), you will see a small light green gel plate stuck to what appears to be the wifi antenna. This is not a heat sink, but it will probably not help to dissipation. I removed and it continues to operate: I do not know what is this gel (protection ??), but it works the same with or without.
