The below high power wifi bridge might be of interest to those that are interested in making a larger bot/rov with an on board computer and need wireless communication. Buffalo seems to be a brand of choise among the wifi types. It appears to be available on the net for ~$65. Combined with their high power wireless router, it appears that line of sight communication is possible up to ~1,900 feet.
why not just network the 2 comps together and use remote desktop?
i know i,m missing something
Because the network is not secure for that kind of communication. And this is not possible to have that long dedicated line.
you do know there is a secure version of the lantronix matchport, yes?
