Pre-Requisite: Part 1: Raspberry Pi SoftEther Server Setup for Remote Access to your Flex 6000 Radio
Optional suggested watching even if you don't implement it: Part 2: Raspberry Pi SoftEther Bridge Setup for Maestro Remote Access to your Flex 6000 Radio
This video shows you how to use your existing laptop to be the SoftEther bridge for your Maestro. The advantage of this is that you can join more complex wifi networks that may have authentication or agreement pages you must accept before accessing the internet. Another bonus is you can VPN in again with the laptop and run SmartSDR CAT and run your logger at the same time. I will be recording another video for OS X soon if I can find something similar to Camtasia for OS X. I do not own any video capture software for OS X.

Excellent Chris and at the right time, I have a Windows 10 HP-Envy which I have been using for quite a long time to remote my Flex radios and control the switches and rotors ..etc., using Softether VPN client connected to my station Windows 7 PC Softether VPN server.
For the past 3 days, I have been trying very hard to figure out how to connect the Maestro to the notebook by bridging the Softether VPN client with the notebook built-in Ethernet card, it did not work.
Just finished setting up the Softether bridge connection before even finishing the video and it worked instantly.
Now I can pack my Maestro for my long 4 months long stay in the UK , I hope that I get a good internet connection there.
Thanks Chris for a well done job.
