Red-I or some other network connection

Hi, Was wondering if there is some way to give My BS2p24 a network
connection through cat 5. I'm wanting to send data from pc through
my network to the stamp. Then have the stamp process the data. I'm
thinking the Red-i might work but it may be more than what i need to
do this with. Basicly, need a simple network connection to interface
with the stamp? Thanks for the help

    If you only need a single point-to-point connections (pc to stamp) I'd
    consider dual differential (RS488?) drivers off the RS232 connection.

    Or you could go with the "Red-i BASIC Stamp Web Server":

    Looks like it will have be Red-I for network
    connection. Is there any tutorial for the Red-I or
    example for viewing using the Red-I? Would like to see
    before investing in one.

    Thanks,
    Tony

    How about siteplayer? Much cheaper than the RedI and seems to work as
    advertised.

    See: www.siteplayer.com

    Hope this helps,
