[Alan Melia]

work backing up to the home the tabs in light grey on a white background are
almost unreadable....too must geewhizz and not the right HF input I
suspect....still looks an interesting product.

Since Arduino has been mentioned I feel obliged to provide a link for
Nanode, an Arduino-compatible that integrates Ethernet and low power
wireless (e.g. 868MHz) for around the same price of an Arduino. It's
supplied as a kit of through-hole components...

Or a nice alternative might be a daughterboard for a Raspberry Pi,
which would give you an ARM/Linux base for not much more money, and
you could use it to create a standalone system that drives an old
monitor for a display.
