If you want to connect your PLC to your WiFi network (assuming your PLC has an Ethernet port) get on of these, and set it up in Bridge mode:

https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Wire...ncoding=UTF8&refRID=NHGQFZ98MHB6CE6Q4ATV&th=1

Make sure to turn off the router and DHCP functions, or it will cause problems on your existing WiFi network.

I've done that on private process networks with simple Wireless Access Point devices.

OT, I also bought:

and it a nice cheap way to be wire free when onsite commissioning instead of knelt inside a cabinet or balancing your laptop on your knees. Small enough to keep in your bag too.
