I've been experimenting with WiFi facilities on IC-705, and having a lot of fun learning the software. Came across a really good YouTube video on subject made by VK3FS and as I don't yet know/remember how to post YouTube video in Video section I'll just leave a link here.
This video makes clear the difference between Station and Access Point, which I had some confusion about.
My next task is to set up an iPhone app called SDR-Mobile, which will allow me to use my iPhone to connect with my IC-705, when I'm out driving. This was a cheaper option of buying another radio, and saves me having to disconnect/reconnect radio when driving. Also has obvious security benefits, as I don't like idea of leaving radio in car when shopping etc.
Cheers
Phillip
