If this product is connected to a wireless router, is the whole network accessible through VPN or just clients hooked in to the switch?

Whole network, if the VPN router is the default gateway and you have the routes configured correctly.

No, this is not a switch you can configure. No management interface. It has some built in QOS, but again not configurable, it is pre defined packet inspection.

You could hook it up to a your router with wireless and anyone connected, wired or wireless will be able to access it (No extra software needed). The LinkStation will show up as a normal network location. And to be extra clear, for windows, it shows up as a networked computer where you can just browse just like any other folder on your own computer. It can be easily password protected as well.

Yes, Dynamic DNS or VPN in. Plugging it in won't automatically put it on the internet.

When I did connect the switch directly to the modem my provider limited the number of IP addresses. I then connected my wireless router to the modem and then this switch to the router. IP addresses were automatically added in the router from the switch. There was no conflict in this config.

No They are different A switch connects multiple machines within a common network A router controls network the machines connected to it's LAN side and connects that sub net to a separate network on the WAN side. A router can take the place of a switch, but a switch cannot replace a router!

Yes. The switch is plug and play out of the box - in my case it was "wire the Comcast modem to the Barracuda VPN and then wire the VPN to the switch"... No config necessary on the switch side - just on the VPN, as expected.

I configured my EA-N66 as Wireless Access Point mode and wire connected to a switch. My router also wire connected to the same switch. This way my network can accept multiple devices through both wire and wireless connection.

I hope I am understanding your question, but one of its operating modes is as a router - that is how I use it. It connects one side to an existing wired network and then creates a wireless network with its own SSID. Any wifi device can then connect to that network and through it to the main network. This is the way I use it - to connect to say a hotel wired network and allow all my wifi devices to then connect through it.

No. I have a router to connect me to the internet and a switch connected to the router so I can connect to additional devices in my home. Here is a link to a more complete explanation of the differences between a router and a switch. http://compnetworking.about.com/od/homenetworkhardware/f/routervsswitch.htm

In short yes. In long. The WAP will act as a wireless unmanaged switch. This allows you to connect it to any router or switch. As long as you have a dhcp or static address available for your equipment.

Yes, you just hardwire the access point to your wired router and then the access point will provide wifi to all your clients. You would use the config program from ubiquiti to connect to the access point in order to configure it.

Yes, in "client mode" it acts like a wireless adapter for wired connections.

should be fine just turn off dhcp and if you have to... point most of the ips towards youf router(dns,dhcp,gateway). You'll still need a seperate wifi "id" I think.

I would assume so. This device is essentially acting like a switch on the network. Once its connected, anything you plug into it should pull an address from the DHCP service. Although if they're already accessible wirelessly, why buy this?

I'm not sure what you mean by the question, but I have my router setup dhcp and connected it directly to the ismartalarm.

All the previous answers are correct. Essentially, the Vera is connected to your router by hard wire and it communicates to all the devices it controls wirelessly. Good luck.
