Rvs are not generally wired for ethernet. In fact, I've never heard of one that had ethernet run through the coach. Its also not like a house where there are voids in the walls and other cables that can be followed and used to pull cables through. With the availability of wifi, you may wonder why one would even use...
This is mainly focused on the full time RVers reading this, but there are still ideas to be mined for others. This is the layout for how our network is getting built and what each Raspberry Pi will do in that network. I've had some new ideas recently, so while I've discussed building a Raspberry Pi network before, this is...
I'm going through what I want to have in the RV, what we already have, and what we can adapt to make work for our situation. As we are professional bloggers, it is important that we be able to connect to our followers, update the website, and be able to function with the hardware we can afford. There are many...
It has been a long week with some projects done, some in process, some parts arriving, and plans for future items. We haven't been posting because, well, we've been busy. It seems each time we get to a new campground, we have plans of things we are going to do and things we are going to work on, and only...
I am trying to figure out our plans for the upcoming year. We are currently in Tennessee, waiting for parts to come in so we can replace the headers and manifolds in our 1988 Tiffin Allegro and hopefully be back on the road soon. There are things I want to take care of though, things that we should have taken...
This review has been a long time in the works. Our original plan was to go to Florida last Thanksgiving and add solar panels, a much larger battery setup, an inverter, and the other parts required for running our RV completely off the grid and unplugged. If you've been following along, you'll know we didn't make it to Florida until...
We've hit another roadblock. These past week or so has been difficult, and if not for the support of our parents, I'm not sure where we'd be or how we'd be surviving. We have had a few trials and setbacks, and its led me to reevaluate what is important and what we need to do with Sleipnir. I have so...
It should be obvious that we are stuck in Kentucky waiting for a nice day out to get towed to the transmission shop to get our transmission installed. We had one window, but weren't able to make it since we didn't want to be stuck there overnight and have to deal with freezing rain the next day. It then snowed...
We have a lot of projects being worked on at the moment, so this is a list and update of what we have underway. We've received a few items to do instals of, but due to the weather right now, we can't get much of it done. The Smart Home on Wheels project is going strong though, and we should...
While we continue to wait on the transmission to get fixed, we are busy with other projects such as solving the power issue. Today, we received a TrippLite 2000 Watt Inverter/Converter. I'm going to be hooking it into the power system as soon as I can, but a few comments on it first. When everything is completed and in place,...
