Like the HomePlug AV technology used in establis-
hed devolo dLAN devices, devolo Magic uses the
household mains supply for data transmission and
secures ideal performance and stability in locations
where network cables are not viable or desired
and/or the Wi-Fi frequently falls short due to cei-
lings and walls.
To set up a devolo Magic network, you need
at least two devolo Magic devices. For tech-
nical
reasons,
devolo Magic series are not compatible with
dLAN devices.
