Using Apex with wireless hotspot

[blfuller123]

I got a trendnet wireless adapter to use my Apex wireless when I first got it. I never got it to work right and I was able to hard wire it to my router. My ISP is horrible here in my apartment and I am thinking about switching to using a wireless hotspot. Anyone using one of these with their Apex?

Well, since a wireless "hotspot" is just a wireless data card/device with a built-in wireless router it should certainly be possible. I am using a Mifi mobile hotspot at home but have never tried it since I also have DSL running through a router too. Although the Mifi is faster than the DSL, it is not as stable. Wireless hotspots tend to be very finicky and need resetting sometimes. Keep that in mind.

BTW - I am using a Linksys gaming adapter to wirelessly connect to my Apex but I run a 50' network cable to do firmware updates. I can sometimes get the firmware to load wirelessly but had a very scary hicup once and do not try that anymore. FYI.
