The current gateway router is an awesome all-in-one powerhouse: the Mikrotik hAP ax3. Whatever I get for the garage (between ISP and MoCA) would be inferior while the ax3 would be demoted to a dumb AP, and that would be really annoying. But it's the most straightforward setup...

A managed switch is cheaper and might be a smarter setup...

Well, in either case, there's going to be #VLAN on the #MoCA network, cause even with the router I will need to get multiple networks to my server.

The question is, will the MoCA endpoints be usable as access ports, or will all devices have to be VLAN aware?

If an ordinary device receives both untagged and tagged frames, what does it do with the tagged frames?
