1.6 Multiple Ne two rks
Multiple powerline networks can coexist on a single powerline circuit. You might want to implement
multiple powerline networks in a small office environment where you have two separate Ethernet
networks.
1
Connect one powerline adapter to a router or switch on the first Ethernet network and assign a
Ne two rk
Na m e
(for example “Password1”) to this powerline adapter. Add additional powerline adapters to your
network by plugging them into your powerline outlets and assigning them “Password1”. This completes
the configuration of your first powerline network.
2
Connect another powerline adapter to a router or switch on the second Ethernet network and assign a
different
Ne two rk Na m e
(for example “Password2”) to this powerline adapter. Again, add additional
powerline adapters and assign them “Password2”.
You now have two private networks on your powerline circuit. Information is not shared between the
two networks as only powerline adapters with the same
Ne two rk Na m e
can communicate with each
other.
