I'm more than a little leery of the wireless solution so I took a different route: I ran a cat5e cable from my in-house router to my observatory. At the observatory, I have a digi AnywhereUSB box

Stuart: When setting up your "N" network between scope laptop and house computer did you use PC Anywhere program or how do you access the screen and run the "scope software". I'm wondering how

Thanks! I have a 4 port USB hub on the mount now and everything goes into that and one single USB to the laptop. The appeal of wireless for me is that the laptop is not that powerful but is good for

Stuart: Hello Stuart. I agree, If you want to go totally "wireless" you need to have routers and laptops running in the "N" mode to get decent response. I've used this setup with Timbuktu

Hello All, On Saturday the cirrus clouds prevented deepsky CCD imaging in the Bay Area. However I wanted to make use of the occasion and so I ended up taking pictures with the Canon DSLR of the nice

Hi Stuart, Thanks for the explanation about the Linksys and windows. I too found this problem odd - and was very curious why my cheap (G class) Giagafast wireless router (set up as a

I'm in the process of buying a Mewlon 250 to go on my 600E, but the mount is in Colorado (and I'm in Ireland). I'm having the Mewlon mounting plate sent to me here (the scope itself will go straight

Joe, this is very useful information! I have W2000 on the laptop in the observatory and my system does not perform per the promise on the Wireless-N router box. BUT, it works so I'm okay. I didn't

Hi Stuart, Just need to add one warning. To get the Draft-N router range and power improvement, the old laptop need a matching Draft-N NIC card. In order for an old laptop to use the new

Mizzou - I'm no computer genius but this might be an alternative to messing with cables etc. I have an inexpensive laptop in the observatory, also about 100' away, and a wireless card in it which
