[tech] Dec Server Help!!

[Mitch Kelly]

This was going to be my second solution, However..

WRT54GL Uses 9W of power @ 800~mA As do many other Broadcom platforms. And
this is too much.

What I really need is some form of Ethernet to Serial cable, One thing I was
thinking of using was the IP Web server from Jaycar:
http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=KC5489&keywords=web+server&form=
KEYWORD (based on an AVR with 4 Analog and 4 digital in/outs)

Or then again there actually is Serial To Ethernet boxes:
http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?URL=index&ID=XC4134&CATID=20&SUBCAT
ID=246

Anyone else know what I can use?

Assuming you don't actually need LAT, you can do a dual-serial port mod to
the Linsys WRT54GL, many versions of which run off 12V.
