I just got my S5 up and running.. I need to move the unit into the garage.. How can I add a Wi-Fi card to the S5 or can I use a Apple Express box?

If using Wi-Fi would it decrees the performance? How would I set something up like this?

yeah, use apple express if you have it.
if you already have your network extended to express, then easy peasy, just put express close to miner, then connect your miner to it by ethernet cord.
if you have multiple miners, then use ethernet hub to connect multiple miners to it, then connect hub to express. It should work.


Cheapest way would be to use an old laptop which has wifi and just do ICS thru ethernet.
