4.3 Important information

Extent of the network

In theory, you can connect up to 253 adapters in one home but in practice it is advisable not to

connect more than ten devices simultaneously.

Compatibility

The SAGEM TURBO PLUG adapters are compatible with all other SAGEM LAN products,

with all devices compliant with the IEEE 802.3 standard and with other HomePlug devices.

Security within the network

In most cases, the electricity meter already serves as a physical barrier, which means that

only the devices linked to one and the same electricity meter can be part of the same network.

Important notes concerning passwords

By applying a number of important rules on the use of passwords, you will considerably

increase security.

♦ Keep the password as secret as possible.

 Never make a note of a password. Favorite, but totally inadequate places are, for

example: notepads, wallets and text files on the computer. Never reveal a

password unless absolutely necessary.

♦ Choose a random password.

 Use a random sequence of letters and digits. Passwords from everyday language

cannot be considered safe.

♦ Change your password regularly, and absolutely without fail immediately you think it may

have become known to other people.

 You should modify your passwords as often as possible. This considerably

increases security.

 When there is the slightest suspicion of a possible leak, you must change the

password.

For security reasons, we would, however, advise you to use the internal

encryption of the SAGEM TURBO PLUG adapters, set up using the "SAGEM

F@ST PLUG Configuration Utility" software. These also refer to the preceding

section.
