Although it's OT: When I want something with network connection, I don't
build a circuit on my own. Instead I use hacked up WLAN routers,
upgraded using OpenWRT. That's an open source firmware replacement that
you can run on many EUR 30 WLAN routers.
Given the amount of time you need for the from-scratch stuff, it's
really cheaper. And it's Linux, so code development is no problem at all.
