The Pi5 comes with dual band WiFi so external access is probably possible. I'm using an older PC with 7i92H. Playing on the lab bench with a Pi4 and 7i82H, LCD touch screen etc. The problems I've run into are more along the lines of user interface with respect to the smaller touch screen. In the long run likely a bad purchase. There are 42 other projects in front of this one at the moment but I thought I'd ask. John
