I am about to embark on a wireless project for a Losmandy GM8. I purchased a mini notebook (HP2140) which has bluetooth and a wireless network connection. I would like to have the whole telescope control wireless! I already have installed Poth, Microsoft world wide telescope (working fine).
This is the configuration:
Mini notebook (160g SSD, 2G Ram, bluetooth, wireless g, n)
Losmandy GM8 (uses GPUSB and serial connection)
DSI pro (autoguiding)(uses a USB)
Nikon D3X with camera control pro (downloading the images)
I have already purchased the Air Cable Serial to Bluetooth adapter which Software Bisque says works well for control of the losmandy but I also want a solution for the 3 USB connections.
One option is a wireless router which has USB ports (made for this) but it is a router, not a network client. This will work, except that I cannot then connect to the network router that has an internet connection. I almost need a wireless USB hub that can act as a netork client which would mean I would need peer to peer wireless in the field, or through another router (not ideal), or a wireless USB hub connecting to a wireless USB key on the laptop. These solutions are not very high in the throughput area.
Any suggestions?
