ASUS N14 and VENUS GX setup

I need some help understanding this USB Wifi dongle setup and what it actually does. The built in wifi of the Venus works perfectly but I would like to connect it to the internet so .that I can (a) sit in my house and connect to the Remote Console using my house router and (b) update my VRM setup so that, again, I can sit in the house rather that have. to go outside to the kit shed! I can’t get my head around how the N14 connects to my house wifi (say it is called abcd001) and how I would connect to the Venus GX.

Venus GX - VGX

Hi @jhass1,

Have you read the internet connectivity section of the GX manual?

You would connect the N14 to the VGX via the USB port, and then there is an option to select the wifi network in the WIFI menu of the GX.
