[Elecraft] K4 Remote Question

300 Mbps is massive overkill.  My K3 and computer is on the other end of 
the house from the router and wiring is pretty much out of the 
question.  I use a little WiFi dongle from IO Gear on the RRC-1258, I've 
got a couple, I think they came from Amazon.  We use TeamViewer for all 
the station automation at W7RN, it consumes several times the BW of the 
remote radio but still tiny compared to 300 Mbps.
