Title: making scope accessible over wireless
Post by: Gibson486 on November 01, 2019, 01:32:21 pm

We just got a R&S RTB2000 series scope. It comes with the Ethernet interface. Is there a way to make this a wireless server of some sort so any one can access the external remote interface just by typing the ip address?  Note that this is going in a lab that is fully wireless. Ethernet jacks are normally not available.

Maybe something like this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1203432-REG/iogear_gwu637_ethernet_2_wifi_universal_wireless_adapter.html (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1203432-REG/iogear_gwu637_ethernet_2_wifi_universal_wireless_adapter.html)

Yep.  This is what I do in my home lab.  I use a wifi repeater like this one:

Works great.

And congrats on the RTB2000!
