.SH NAME
plcnets - Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Network Enumerator

.SH SYNOPSIS
.BR plcnets
.RI [ options ]

.SH DESCRIPTION
Search host Ethernet interfaces for Atheros powerline networks.

.SH COMMENTS
This program illustrates use of some basic Atheros powerline networking classes.

.SH OPTIONS

.TP
-\fBt \fImilliseconds\fR
Read timeout in milliseconds.
Values range from 0 through UINT_MAX.
This is the maximum time allowed for a response.
The default is shown in brackets on the program menu.

.TP
.RB - ? ,-- help
Print program help summary on stdout.
This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.

.TP
.RB - ! ,-- version
