Hi Bob, thanks for your input.  No, we are just talking about networking the 
computers at FD wireless to share the log in WL.

I know the CW keying is independence of the wireless and the keying circuit is 
connected to a comport.
I don't know what kinda a problem other than RF would cause a problem.  He said 
that he noticed the router leds flashing in-sync with the keying.  So that to me 
suggest RF.  


We will see what happens in a few weeks when its FD

 Stop the insanity!
Please do not add me to any distribution lists (Joke, Stories or Junk) without 
my permission.

Unless this guy was talking about controlling a remote station     (where 
internet latency can be an issue), there should be no problem     using wireless 
to connect your network together.

The CW keying line is typically direct connected from the computer     to the 
radio (either via an LPT/COM port, a router (MicroHam, etc.),     or a WinKeyer 
(serial or USB). Therefore the CW keying does not "go     over the wireless" 
connection at all.
