Simple WiFi RS232 Modem
This device connects a computer with a standard RS232 serial port to a Telnet BBS. As a longtime enthusiast of modems, I became the first Fidonet sysop in my hometown, and my passion for telecommunications persists. The Simple WiFi RS232 Modem marked my inaugural hardware project, initiated in 2018 and continuously refined through numerous hardware revisions.
Here, you can access detailed instructions on its usage and discover the computers I’ve connected to.
