This is a rather useless piece of advice:
what "utility" and where is it hidden?
Look on the CD that came with your Powerline adapter, on there you will find a program that allows you to set the encryption - this is the "utility".
Better than the CD though is to download the latest version from the Netgear website. BTW whatever Netgear Powerline product you are using if you are running Vista you need version v1.0.1.0 or later (you'll find that under XEPS103).
