eGauge Systems Tutorial 2: HomePlug information and pairing tutorial

2.3 Recovery of HomePlug devices

In the event the HomePlug password does not get established on all devices correct, communication with the

eGauge may be lost.

There are two ways of rescuing an ”orphaned” device.

Recovery of HomePlug device via eGauge HomePlug interface

The HomePlug conﬁguration screen on the eGauge has an option for adding the MAC address of an “invis-

ible” device. Here you can enter the MAC address address of an eGauge or a HomePlug that has a unique

encryption key with no way to communicate.

Figure 2.9: Rescuing an orphaned device

The above situation could be used to reset the encryption key on a HomePlug AV device that has MAC

address 22:C0:FF:EE:34:5A and restore communication.

Recovery of HomePlug device via computer software

This utility works on Windows computers only. There are other available HomePlug programs but only the

Actiontec and Netgear (available at http://egauge.net/docs/egauge-security-whitepaper.

pdf under HomePlug Security) utilities have been veriﬁed by eGauge. It is strongly advised you complete

all HomePlug pairing via the eGauge interface as these software utilities may operate less clearly or allow

you to modify other HomePlug devices unintentionally.
