WIFI Options for Brewing | Beer Brewing Hardware | Forum

How do I connect my BCS-460 wirelessly to the internet? This seems to be one of the more common questions asked about the BCS-460 beer brewing controller.  It can also be one of the more confusing this to do… Until now…

The Universal WIFI Internet Adapter from NETGEAR makes this a simple task. You can plug your BCS460 Ethernet cable directly into the Universal WIFI Internet Adapter and have your BCS460 connect to your home network, wirelessly.  The directions in the box for the Netgear Universal WIFI Internet Adapter were easy to follow and took minimal programming to connect to my home network. I completed mine in less than 5 minutes.

As of 10/2010, I found the NETGEAR Universal Wifi Adapter at Walmart for $59.99.  The package comes with two options for power. You can use the supplied USB Cable connector or the Standard 120v plugin. Velco and an ethernet cable are included.

This stand alone device takes much less room than a concerted router and looks a lot cleaner for installation purposes.
