Ed, sounds like we’re seeing the same potential. Thanks for your feedback

Re: "...and work like a bridge between the two network...Like this one for example...I have been using a similar product (Netgear WINCE2001) for years on my home alarm system with no problems.

...and work like a bridge between the two network. In this way, maybe, you can connect the K4 to the wifi in a more "natural" way.Like this one for example:https://www.amazon.com/Vonets-VAR11N-300-Multi-Functional-Wireless-Portable/dp/B01199OGK0/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1_sspa?keywords=vonets+VAR11+N-300&qid=1558431899&s=gateway&sr=8-1-fkmrnull-spons&psc=1Best regards, Graziano Roccon IW2NOY / W2NOY ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
Nearly every SoHo "router" can be put in Bridge Mode, and routers are
nearly always cheaper.

Graziano,
Wayne explained to me at Hamvention that the K4 is running Linux. That gets my stamp of approval. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft / IC-7610 comparison From: "Graziano Roccon (IW2NOY)" <[hidden email]> Date: Tue, May 21, 2019 5:45 am To: Alan <[hidden email]> Cc: [hidden email] Hello, this is not good for K4. These products are thought to be manage by operative systems and drivers (like Windows or Mac or Linux), this is not the case of the K4 that have a custom "OS" and can't manage that kind of devices. Maybe you can use more complicated and expensive devices thought to be used with RJ-45 ports, where this device use a DHCP and give an ip address to the RJ-45 port creating a private network between the RJ-45 and the device, afterwards the device can access the WIFI network with his wifi adapter and work like a bridge between the two network. In this way, maybe, you can connect the K4 to the wifi in a more "natural" way. Like this one for example: https://www.amazon.com/Vonets-VAR11N-300-Multi-Functional-Wireless-Portable/dp/B01199OGK0/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1_sspa?keywords=vonets+VAR11+N-300&qid=1558431899&s=gateway&sr=8-1-fkmrnull-spons&psc=1 Best regards, Graziano Roccon IW2NOY / W2NOY ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

None? Often non-AV products use DVI or DisplayPort because of cost / licensing vs HDMI. This is why you see DVI and DP rather than HDMIi on a lot of computer monitors. I am guessing the video on the K4 comes from an SBC and the HDMI "tax" has already been paid. 73. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
