Hi, Mike,
If you have a B&G Charplotter you can integrate it with the GoFree Wifi-1
interface. It's not too bad expensive ($200.00) for all it does:

With that you can control your Zeus / Lowrance / Navico MFD remotely via
an Apple or Android device.. Also, it can connect the Zeus to the internet
and you can update the software / get additional apps directly off the
air.
BTW, the new software Upgrade on the Zeus-2 rocks! It adds a "Race" mode
which gives you a bonafide race timer complete with the synch function and
rolling starts capability.. And the Kicker is the "what if" page that
gives you time and distance to waypoint on Port vs Starboard tack side by
side by comparing your actual VMG and a projected VMG based on wind
conditions, boat speed, and bearing. You also get a wind trend graph too
which back-up your seat of pants / bearing on headers and lifts That's
some pretty awesome stuff straight out of their high priced H5000 series
race computers.

Does this mean that some sort of device such as iPad, iPhone, Android
phone, Windows Tablet can pick up this wifi signal and from that position,
wind speed, boat speed, depth, etc? I currently have Windows Surface 2
with Navionics Boating HD and this could be useful. (we also have all
those other devices as well). Is there any app that we should be using on
these devices with the wifi to make them repeaters?
Thanks
Mike
