The Edimax HP-2002AC has the usual features and software, including a push-button system for creating a secure 128-bit AES encrypted connection with other HomePlug AV devices on your network. This provides security against the already low risk that neighbours on the same power ring might accidentally wander on to your network if they also use HomePlug AV. Theres also the usual management software to allow you to monitor your HomePlug adaptors and configure QoS to prioritise certain types of local network traffic.
