This is an ancient article, but the principle should hold for Win10...

Does it work as a true bridge so the sds is visible on your network?

Yes, it has an ip 192.168.1.85 on the network the other 200 direct wired LAN is 192.168.1.103

Brilliant, Thank You
Can anyone post some screenshots of settings for the vonets bridge. I used to have patience with this stuff and figure it out but as I get older things tend to become air born if you know what I mean.
I do have the bridge on the router.
I do have the bridge on the router.
All I had to do was select bridge mode and the WiFi connection info and it gets a network ip I then set a static on my router so that the sds200 gets the same ip all the time. There is no settings for me to screenshot as everything is default

Should it show the scanner mac address on the router or the bridge mac address? I have 2 IP addresses for 1 mac address on my router. I have the scanner on my router for sure. I can go the IP and get the ,message for the scanner name.
As long as the scanner is reachable your good imo

Thanks for the suggestion and tips... mine arrived today (along with some right angle mini USB and right angle Ethernet cables just in case...

Wow, that was super easy, setup the Vonet and was playing with it wirelessly in minutes, took longer to configure a static IP on my Centurylink rented ADSL modem than it took to configure on my pooter or in Proscan... now I wish there was just an easier way to upload files to it instead of a bunch of terminal commands...... I did find this little utility on here so may see what that's all about, thank you to the developer..

If this scanner is hooked up via lan cable can it direct stream to a Broadcastify stream or does it have to go through a PC to do this. I currently use a G5 for my day to monitoring of my local system for my FD but am thinking about purchasing the sds200 to replace my old house scanner and would like to stream what I monitor on this scanner.

As any scanner it has to connect to a PC to stream.
Can I use this to connect my SDS200 directly to a Windows tablet running ProScan without going through a LAN?
I want to use a Windows tablet as a remote head in my vehicle using ProScan. It seems it would be less mess, less cables, to connect the SDS200 to my tablet via wifi directly.
Get a mobile WiFi router I use my Verizon hotspot

It should work directly just like a 536
Provided they're both on the same network (subnet ect) I assume so.... I use it with an Asus T100TA Transfomer which is a tablet with removable keyboard/dock. The Vonet is plugged into the ethernet on the front of the scanner, giving it an IP via DHCP, and then I setup a static IP on my router for the Vonet and it works great.
Well, I want to use this in my vehicle, so neither one will be connected to my router at home.
I guess I might need to look at another option for my application.
You should be able to setup static IP's to both devices and work like you want.
Open some ports on your firewall and fire up TeamViewer, open as in allow TeamViewer etc access to certain ports, not a free for all opening wide open.
So forgive the dizzy inducing movement of the camera and the nosedive you take when I had to put the camera down to detach it from the dock, I was using my iPhone one handed.... Here's a quick clip of what Proscan looks like running on a Win 10 tablet via a Vonet wi-fi bridge on the scanner. The audio on the tablet is crystal clear, in fact the scanner audio is turned all the way down but you can still here masive buzz in the background, ON TOP of the dispatch audio. Like I always said, the firmware update only shuts off the audio between transmissions, it does nothing to the audio on calls, you still have the buzz once transmission starts. I then turn down the tablet volume and hold the camera near the EXTERNAL speaker (I'm so tired of people saying the buzz is only on the internal speaker).
Note, this is a large file, start it up then hit pause so it can start coming down or you'll have no audio.

People continue posting reviews saying the buzz issue was fixed with the metal chunk hack and firmware, I disagree.
By the way, Uniden Siren works great if you’re on an iOS device.
