I just have the idea that the EZ-B would have somehow some kind of ports on it to connect it directly to the PC as an alternative way. Will EZ-B update its products or so?

Hi, Thanks for the reply. EZB4 is located in the head. Head is separated from all aluminum body via pan/tilt servos. Embedded computer is not yet up and running. Running bot through my laptop. However when I do get the embedded computer up and running I will do the wifi dongle as you have stated. I have yet to post pics of my machine , this would probably explain a lot. Very close to picture worthiness though, probably around thanksgiving. Thanks again!
If you have room to run a cable up into the head, you could stick the wifi dongle on a usb extension cable so it is right up next to the EZ-B and also to allow signal to get to the computer from outside the bot through the plastic cover (I am assuming you will want some kind of remote access to the embedded computer).

Alan that's perfect, I didn't think about that. There are 2 flexible conduits running from the back of the head to the main body of the robot which allows signals to be sent to different devices , h bridges etc. I can definitely put a dongle up the same conduit
This Dongle worked well for another member, is cheap, and from a company with an excellent reputation.
