How to Add Wireless to Ethernet Only Equipment
If you grew up with the rise of computing and computer hardware, you went through an era where computer equipment was costly and ineffective. The birth of the internet for consumer use ran parallel to the exponential rise in computing power. Sometimes it was internet speeds that restricted us from doing what we wanted but more often than not, it was the computer itself that gave us problems. Telephone line modems were quite common back in the days, and you either had the choice of 14.4kbps or 28kbps – which is dreadfully slow by today’s standard. The thought of sharing that connection between two computers was unheard of, and some simply ordered a second line to be used strictly for internet usage. Today, high speed connections are everywhere, and for a musician they can be a lifesaver. Call us lazy, but it is much easier to send files through the internet or over a local area network, than it is to upload them to a portable driver. Producers know well about using wireless protocols in their setup, and use their routers to connect their tablet to their main workstation. Eliminating cables from the gear is just one way to simplify the work space. http://www.audioholics.com/tweaks/connecting-your-system/add-wifi-to-hard-wired-equipment
