I am in the beginning steps of trying to remotely control an LX90 using an attached laptop ..........and using my home wifi network .........to the desktop computer inside in my office.
Would you folks give me some practical setup tips once I have a Virtual Private Network working on my home wifi network. Assume the Desktop can "see" the laptop on the wifi network and that I can already control the laptop software.................the question is what are the next steps to control my LX90 (in sequence please). Thanks in advance for your help and advice. I already know that I need a USB to Serial adapter, and I already own a 505 Meade cable, and the appropriate telescope control software. Thank you.
