I picked up an Alfa AWUS036NHR USB wifi adapter and an EdiMax USB wifi adapter. I can't seem to get either one of them to connect. The alfa scans and identifies the network, but won't connect. Same with the Edimax.
I also got a CAT5 cable to go from my laptop to the Pi if that will work, but I don't know what to do once they are plugged into each other.
So, any help would be nice.
And please, assume I know nothing about what you are about to explain, so give a little preliminary before going too far.
Eventually, I want to attach a webcam to my radio controlled lawn mower, send an image back to my laptop. Once that works out, I want to go the next step and make the lawn mower autonomous, using ultrasonic location and GPS.
I got the book, Raspberry Pi for dummies, but I'm not very happy with the explanations or should I say, the lack of depth to them. It's a good book if you want to make kids games with your Pi.
Maybe a suggestion for a better book would even be helpful.
Thanks,
Martin
