Groov Epic and Rio Wifi Dongle

Hi everyone, does anyone have a current/new Wi-Fi dongle that’s compatible with both the groov EPIC and RIO?

Hi Naren, The current WIFI adapter list in the user guides is still accurate. We will be adding more with the new EPIC and RIO firmware update expected within the next few months.

This list is a few months old, but shows options and availability for the approved adapters for both the EPIC and RIO.

Thanks for the list. I currently have one EPIC controller and two RIOs. Do I need a separate Wi-Fi dongle for each device to connect to Wi-Fi, or can I daisy-chain the EPIC with the two RIOs so that connecting one controller to Wi-Fi allows all devices to be on the network?

You’re welcome. It’s possible to connect to the RIOs using Port Redirect with the EPIC. Though it may not be the optimal configuration depending on what you are looking to achieve with your network.
