Ken, If you already have a home network set up, adding another ethernet device is like 'falling off a log' - just plug and play, and you can access it from anywhere on the network. Setup will through a browser, but once the device is configured, it should look just like any other 'computer' or device on the network. Whether it is usable or not depends on your software application - if it can send through a TCP/IP connection, then it can access the device (and the K3), but if the application only supports serial communication, you are out of luck.
If you do not have a home network (assuming you have more than one computer), you might want to try setting up a network between the computers first to get some experience with how that is done - it is not hard, but there is a learning curve for the uninitiated. 73, Don W3FPR Ken Alexander wrote: > There seems to be more information on this EBay page where somebody is > selling them.
