Hi,
first of all we were able to enable the CAN bus on the Arch Linux and now
it seems that it's working. I will start building the cape to test it. If
you are interested in using CAN in the Arch Linux, I can explain it to you!
Second, my project is all about getting CAN data and sending it via Wifi
and I need a range of something like 1 km cause I'm building a telemetry
system for the FSAE electric competition. I had thought to use a router to
send this data via TCP/IP since the SocketCAN abstracts the CAN data as it
were just another TCP/IP socket. However, this consumes a lot of power and
it could become a problem. Do you have any other ideas for this issue?
Thanks in advance once again
