Establish wireless communication between laptop and tanks #13

Closed brennen-b closed 7 months ago

brennen-b commented 7 months ago

We need a wireless solution where the laptop can send/receive data to/from the tanks wirelessly WHILE being connected to the internet.

These are the high level overviews of the two setups that I've been attempting to use: Network diagram example(2).pdf

We are going to stick with manually connecting the tanks as before

santolucito commented 7 months ago

does manually mean with serial? or manually typing in IPs?

brennen-b commented 7 months ago

I meant serial, mainly. I realize this ticket wasn't well worded for the problem I was actually after, which was automating the handshake between the laptop and tank. Because once the laptop and tank have each other's IP's, we should be able to use HTTP freely for the communication (certainly over the windows hotspot, though).
