Thanks for these links they helped a lot. Still not sure what I'm
going to do.

I am surprised that a consumer level wireless USB system has not yet
been developed. Considering I'm using a couple of $14 wireless usb lan
adaptors between the barn and the house (about 90 feet) and a 9 buck
wireless phone from Walmart also between the barn and house you
wouldn't think it would be such a big deal.
