Shouldn’t be any problem I have used a wireless access point from dlink(can’t remember which one at the moment) connected directly to the serviceport.

If you connect to the service port you should be fine with dhcp.

Hello Petjo, could you explain what settings you used on the Asus wifi adapter? Also were there any changes to the settings for the service port?

Hi

Note that the service port is a DHCP server, if you want to use other ports you need the option PC Interface on the robots
