5.0 out of 5 stars Why I didn't buy one of these earlier I don't know
Having the ability to connect to the Scope Mount with Mobile or PC Software, is a real eye opener. Why I didn't get one earlier I am unsure, but I am now regretting all those frustrating nights playing around with the handset. PTN: the handset is OK but a little clunky for me, and you can fully control and track with the handset, it's just that the WiFi connect is way, way easier..
4.0 out of 5 stars Works much better than the inbuilt wifi for the telescope
As the saying goes, a millionaire is a billionaire who got into astronomy!This device is very simple to use and connects via the AUX port and replaces my handset for linking the mount to the computer.Very expensive for what it is but it works far better than the in-built wi-fi on the mount. I have disabled the wi-fi on the mount and now simply use the dongle. So far every time I turn on the mount, the wi-fi for the dongle is found and connected to on the laptop and aligning and slewing using CPWI requires fewer cables now so the whole rig looks far tidier. So far this has been worth the money.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works with the cpwi software.
Been using this for a couple of years now. It's easier to set up now an use with the celestron cpwi software. I use this wifi adapter with an avx mount, starsence alignment camera , an phd2. I normally connect it to the home wifi an have used it with windows laptops as well as an android tablet. It can be used in adhoc mode as well but as I sit in the garage on a laptop it doesn't keep the signal as well as connecting to the home wifi.I like the wifi dongle but I do feel it is a little overpriced compared to a wifi dongle for a PC.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works well..
Don't forget to turn off any VPN or ot won't connect.. at lesser mk e well
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect accessory
Well worth buying, makes using telescope more intuitive and fun to use.
4.0 out of 5 stars Sold as New .
The device works but I bought this thinking it was brand-new, it seems not to be the case . This is the second time I thought I was bought New .Very disappointed. 1 star to Bolo four stars for the device
5.0 out of 5 stars Good
Somewhat expensive for what it is and it feels a bit flimsy but it works well.
5.0 out of 5 stars Essential product for wireless capability
Excellent product. The Celestron SkyPortal app on iPhone makes finding targets and aligning the telescope a cake walk. The augmented reality is an added benefit to locate the targets with sky view from the phone camera.
Funktioniert einfach und problemlos
Der WLAN Adapter für mein CPC 800 funktioniert "plug and play": in den AUX Port eingestöpselt, das vom Adapter neu aufgespannte WLAN mit dem Smartphone verbunden, Celestron Skyportal App oder Skysafari App gestartet und Teleskop verbinden: läuft.Einziger Nachteil: verbindet man sein Smartphone mit dem Celestron WLAN Adapter im "Direct Mode", kann man nicht mehr aufs Internet zugreifen. Da hilft nur der AP Mode: bei diesem verbindet man den Adapter in das bereits vorhandene WLAN bei sich zu Hause (oder unterwegs z.B. mit einem mobilen WLAN AP) und greift dann darüber auf den Adapter zu.

GOOD
EASY OF USE
Up and running in less than 5 minutes. Perfect score!
It took a little less than 5 minutes to have the wifi module running and that's because I was lazy and didn't want to make mistake. This accessory can in fact be completely functional in few seconds, from its box to the telescope port and Skyportal running. It is that simple. Just follow the few steps on the instructions coming with it and it will work its magic in an instant. I received the latest generation of this SkyPortal accessory and no firmware update seemed to be needed since it worked straight out of the box. Good wifi signal when connecting directly to it with an iPhone. The control response time is instantaneous. It is expensive for such a little piece of hardware but the freedom and functionality it provides is priceless. Control input from wifi device is as accurate as if it was running from the hand controller. And it is much more convenient. No wire, no hassle, and Skyportal interface is fun to use. I'm not deceived. Can't wait to get my 8SE outside tonight with my kids. Just make sure that an 8SE is installed forward enough on the rail so the focus knob don't get into contact with the module. I can almost reach zenith (85 degree up) with the 8SE 1.25" diagonal.Edit: I finally got out tonight with my 8SE equipped and its new Skyportal wifi. This device is a game changer. It hasn't faulted during the whole night, connection was strong and alignments were always spot on. It is so great to tap onto a clestial object in Skyportal app, hit goto and see the scope pivoting and aligning towards its target by itself. The freedom that this wifi device provides is priceless. My little girl thought it was a sorcerer trick when she saw her Jupiter on the phone screen and watch the scope align to it in real time when tapping GoTo. A nice educative tool.
