Brookstone Rover + Ez-B V4

Has anyone purchased the EZ-B v4 with the intention of using it with a Brookstone Rover II. I was told by EZ Robot if I buy the EZ-B i'll be able to remotely log into the rover from anywhere, but after waiting a year for the piece to finally arrive, I have no idea what to do with it. No instructions, just a plastic cube.

I'm a novice to this robotics so could anyone give me some starting tips or direct me to the right forum. Thanks.

You connect to the Rover's WiFi with the PC which is running ARC, the EZ-B is not required for this step.

Having said that, the EZ-B also connects via WiFi and with only one WiFi NIC you can't connect to both at the same time. The EZ-B V3 used Bluetooth which didn't have this problem to overcome.

The Brookstone Rover II wasn't supported, an update may have changed this as I know DJ was working on it or at least had it on his list.

Give the forums a search and see what you can find out about the Rover II. Search Results.
