I am thinking that there is alot of overhead involved to setup each node with its IP address, etc. The interface from the PIC can be serial of some flavor, but I need the solution to be cheap and robust as well. > It's crazy overkill, but you could use the Linksys WRT54GL router. It runs Linux, and has all that Wi-Fi stuff built in. $70 each.
