Hi, Is it possible to work with the N200 with a laptop that has a RTL8103 Ethernet controller (not a 1Gb Ethernet.. Just 10/100 Mb Ethernet)? Thanks, iftah

You'll be limited to fairly-low sample rates--about 2Msps. -- Marcus Leech Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org

I suspect your notebook might be a bit weak to do much with the samples, even if you just intend to get 2Msps, which is a quite wasteful if you intend to get a N200. Since your question was whether you could "work with the N200 with a laptop that has a RTL8103", I'd say: depends on your application. Most probably you won't be very happy. Generally, it makes a lot of sense to get a decent computer for signal processing. Greetings, Marcus On 10.02.2014 18:28, Marcus D.
