I started this dialog, so I will give you all an update. I purchased An
Eoc-3220 EXT:

http://www.engeniustech.com/datacom/products/Category.aspx?id=17

My decision was bases on specifications. I have now established
communications with the device, it took a null modem adapter and a gender
changer to do this. Un fortunately I no longer had these in my junk pile.

Stay tuned for my efforts to get on line.

My goal is to get an antenna high enough to clear a boat house or other
obstruction to receive Wi-Fi. I have some confidence that this device will
do what I want it to do.

Funny thing though is I am not a fan of MS Windows, and miss MS Dos, but
plug and play has some real benefits now that I am just a user. It has been
humbling.

I likewise use 3G cellphone when appropriate, AT&T HSDPA in my case,
comparable speeds, but there are times when Wi-Fi is the better option:
* Out of the country
* Weak cellular signal

You shouldn't need that unless you have "bricked" the device and need
a reset to factory settings. Otherwise you should be able to do
everything via the ethernet connection and a web browser.
