if you dig deep into the specs of the routers, you can find that a very small segment already has usb ports to connect the motes, (the Linksys NSLU2 is a prime example, wich also runs Linux by the way) and also remember that you have the c/c++ sdk with a serial forwarder written in C it's just needs some tweaking Saludos
footnote Crossbow sells the NSLU2 as the NB100 Stargate Netbridge ( http://www.xbow.com/Products/productdetails.aspx?sid=275) Martín René Vilugrón Patagonia Argentina On Wed, Sep 3, 2008 at 11:27 AM, De-MonHell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Monday 01 September 2008 01:07:44 João Paulo Amaro da Costa Luz Carneiro > wrote: > > Hi, > > Is it possible to connect the MIB520 to a device (not pc) such as a > > router or modem? > > After sending messages to serial from the mote, how can I read them > > from the router? > > Any examples?
