Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
I use one of the GL.iNet routers with the USB C connection for DC power from my PegausAstro PowerPocket Advanced. If you can solder, it's pretty easy to take a barrel pigtail and USB C power pigtail (

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
Most of those seem to be USB-C *to* barrel connector (IOW power from the USB-C PD port setup to deliver 5V? to the barrel connector). Is there one you know of that takes 12V from a barrel connector

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
The Slate-AX needs an honest 5V@2A supply to run reliably and more is a plus if running multiple 1GBs connection on the internal switch.? I tried to use a standard 1A USB type A port for power on my

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
That sounds like using your laptop with a docking station having an ethernet port for the gemini and appropriate ports for the camera(s) involved. The laptop is the one that would connect with wifi.

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
That Slate-AX sounds great apart from the USB-C port for power. I have 12V DC barrel connectors on my power box but nothing that has USB-C ? I guess I need to find a 12v to USB-C power supply. D.

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
Hi David, I use a GL.iNet GL-AXT1800 in 2.4ghz mode as a AP/Repeater. It is powered by USB C if you have access to that connection at your telescope - mine is connected to my NUC for power. It also

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
OK my terminology was wrong. I want to have a laptop at the telescope connected to a "box" that connects to my wifi network and has a couple of ethernet ports, one for the G-2 and one for the laptopn.

Huh? You literally said that you were looking for an access point ("... so I'm hoping I can find a good AP...") so I pointed you at one that is both weatherproof and is powered by PoE; two common

Re: 12V Exterior grade Wireless Access Point
Any of the Ubiquiti mesh access points are a good choice. They all do PoE, so you only need to run a single cat5e (or better) to it with a (usually provided) PoE injector in-line with the cable back
