Wireless Interfacing Problem.

[uaf5000]

Hey guys.

I have to wirelessly transmit data from my PIC 16F877A to my nearest server. I am not able to find any RF data transceiver which can efficiently do that. Please help me out with this.
Also, if i use Xbee with this, would it be a wise decision? Also, which module of Xbee to use and how can i program it? I mean do i have to directly interface it or do i have to program it first with its Kit or something?


Thanks.

This thread may help. I have not used the xbee.

I have been very impressed with these modules:

Cheap and reliable.

I get a range of about 250m (820ft).

Try Lynx RF modules. I use them extensively for prototyping. Output data 115 Kbps, they are data in = data out with no need for balanced data to the modulator. 900 Mhz with 100's of channels using serial programming or 9 channels using external 3 dip switches. I have flown model airplanes using this set at more than 150 yards with no problem in the data link at 9600 bps with 16F and 18F MCU's.
