Hi all,I’ve searched the web and the official FAQs to answer this question but cannot come up with an answer - I hope one of you could help!Currently I have 4 powerline adapters on a single flat network across my home. All is working fine.My home office (second floor) is remote to the main internet socket in the house where the current home router sits (by the front door). These 2 locations are 2 of the 4 powerline locations on the existing network.My office has provided me with a home firewall appliance, the intention being to connect my home office / network to the DC via a site-2-site VPN. This appliance needs to sit next to the router, to connect the WAN and LAN ports.My question is this. How can I connect the powerline adapter in my office to the new VPN appliance? Can multiple networks live on the same powerline circuit (think vLANs on a traditional network)? Or do I need additional switches in the office to create actual vLANs on top of the powerline circuit to achieve connectivity?Any advice would be most gratefully received.Many thanks.Jer2224.
