powerline networks are identified by the Ethernet interface (network card) on your
computer which is connected directly to a powerline adapter. Typically there is only
one connection. However, if your computer has two network cards and both are
connected to a powerline adapter, then you have two powerline networks.

connected to the computer running the configuration utility.
