can usb daq run over wireless usb?

[falkpl]

I want to acquire 200kSamples/sec using an NI USB daq, no problem.  Can this usb be replaced with a wireless usb hub (I understand that this is less reliable).  Has anyone tried a USB hubs (IOGear) with any of the USB devices.  I know there is some limitations to the Wireless usb hup (isonchronous transfer is not supported but is still capable of 480Mbps transfer).  Any comments on wireless usb is apreciated.

Hello Falklp,

Pleas have a look at the following webcast; http://zone.ni.com/wv/app/doc/p/id/wv-796 

There is a special WIFI DAQ product page, some C series modules (used in compact DAQ and compact RIO) are going wireless; http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/post?board.id=170&message.reply_to_id=345911

Best regards,

Were you ever able to manage wireless transmission from a USB DAQ?  I have an older DAQPad 6015 and was hoping to wirelessly transmit the signal from the DAQ to a PC about 15 feet away.

This post was from 2008.  If I remember correctly we ended up not using wireless usb.  The system ended up having a minipc on the side with the sensors and transfered data over WIFI via tcpip.  I never ended up using wireless USB.  

That said, much has changed over the past 7 years so I would imagine this would be easier to test.
