Those things are Serial ports for use over WiFi, they just transmit the RS-232 signals from a computer to the WiFi serial port. You would be able to connect the Amiga to a PC via Null-modem but nothing more.
Think of it as a wireless serial cable.

The page sez:



So it does work over the wireless network but programing it is another thing.  Did you look through the docs. to see how to initialize the beast?  If it is anything other then a remote login (connect directly to the device via its wifi) then you'd need a PC or something to run what ever sofware is needed to set it up.

Keep us informed cuz this is highly COOL!


Sorry, I've been hanging around /. too long :)

Yes indeed! It will do some protocols and raw sockets, via AT commands, there is a programmers manual under support or here http://www.connectone.com/media/upload/ATi_Programmers_Manual_8_32.pdf

It would probably be enough if someone wrote a TCP/IP Stack for it...
