[Hamara-devel] Share Wireless Hack info

[Gurvinder]

Hi Syam

Shirish has given the answer you were looking for. Weblink 
http://rpi900.com will give you complete info regarding where to start 
and how to configure it.

Hardware
- DNT2400 Wireless Module
- Raspberry Pi Model A
- 12V Adapter with Barrel Connector {Barrel connector comes in different 
sizes, I guess the size I have, is the one which is used to connect 
surveillance cameras}. I can confirm the exact size to you later on.
- Directional or Omni directional Antenna
- U.F.L connector

Incase you face any issue in configuration, I would be happy to help.
