Being new with NI techology I am currently experimenting with different way's to use the myrio.
Is their anyway to connect the myrio to a Peer to Peer to network with a labtop? I will soon be doing a project in which I will be planting a myrio on a rocket to control various mechanicms. It seems like their will be shortage of room for a USB cable, so I am wondering is their anyway to create a PEER-to-PEER network with my labtop and if so where can I find more information about this.
Thank you

Hey DougieBa,
What you want is an ad-hoc network. You can create an ad-hoc network host on your laptop that the myRIO joins, or vice-versa
Let us know if you have any questions about this.
Thanks!

Ok i created the network, and was able to access the rio in Labview through wireless.
My only concern, will I still be able to access the myrio file path's through my computer, b/c on my computer it reads non-exhistent, is their a way to do this?

Yup, you should use WebDAV to transfer files to and from the myRIO and it should work fine via ad-hoc wifi network.

Is that what you meant? If you're just asking about the path you may need to use the myRIO IP address rather than the host name to connect to it when you're on an ad-hoc network.
