    Use Ethernet. If it needs to be wireless, use a Wi-Fi connection.

    I need to communicate for example over 60 km. Is WIFI then the right solution? And you need
    the password of the WIFI.
    Is it not possible to communicate over 3G or anything else.

    RL600,
    But many thanks for your reaction.

    I meant that you could use Ethernet and Wi-Fi.

    Is a satellite phone connection beyond your budget - its technology that is designed for exactly this problem...

    How much data are you sending? You can look at Orbcomm, which is available absolutely everywhere, although you might have to wait a moment for a satellite to pass overhead.

    Its really only cost effective for small packets of data however (eg a position or alarm change status)
