RN-XV from Roving Networks is a pin-compatible replacement for the popular XBee serial radios from Digi, giving you 802.11 Wifi instead. UART to Wifi bridge aka “Wifly” Gives a raw TCP connection to any IP address (also incoming) Trivial to interface to C64 user port @ 2400 baud To watch out for: Needs 5V/3.3v conversion (Adafruit makes a board) RxD on User Port needs both pins B+C connected!
