Am using Trendnet 200Mbps Powerline Utility (Using home
electrical wiring system), setup on a Windows XP machine in room
1.
Problem: On a 2nd room computer, using Ubuntu v12 + KDE 4
Desktop, Unable to connect to Internet through the following
setup using Ubuntu v12 + KDE 4 Desktop. (This system works
perfectly in WinXP Pro – same computer). The plgged-in utility 3
lights are all on.
ACTUAL SETTINGS of TrendNet Utility:
Web Login name: my email
Web Pass: bumpalot
Network Name: HomePlugAV Device
Network Password: SVWY-MM1W-WKPH-UNBC

I tried to download files from Windows XP & copy them to Linux:
- faifa_0.2~svn64-1_amd64.deb, (which strongly suggests to use a
package manager like aptitude or synaptic to download and install
packages),so no luck there.
- Downloaded Faifa tool, but it also requires other files to be
downloaded, which obviously I cannot accomplish.
The only Network Manager I have installed is a Ubuntu version
that obviously is not working properly.
I would appreciate any suggestions re Powerline utility or a KDE
Network Manager.
