How hard is it to rig a wireless monitor and keyboard to my Win7 to
use in another room? I've read a little about the gear but the ads
don't provide me enough practical info on how to hook it up and have
any confidence it would work if I went ahead and ordered it. My
desktop homebuilt PC is fairly ancient (but modern enough to run Win7)
if that makes any difference. Doesn't have an HDMI port.

They should be easy to set up. HDMI needed. Install the drivers and
turn it on.
IMO, a wireless monitor should be great for doing email but worthless
for gaming.

A 60GHz Wigig wireless monitor connection can do 4K uncompressed,
but not at a long distance. Generally, 60GHz only works within the same room.
It cannot go through a wall. This is 4K @ 30FPS, not full 4K @ 60. 1920x1080 @ 60p (progressive)
would be no problem for it. This is a Canadian web page, so adjust price for USD.

"That was about as far away as I could get and still be in the house. Also, it wasn’t directly
line of sight, as there was a wall blocking the view. There was a doorway a couple of feet away,
but there was no way for me to line the transmitter and receiver up directly. So I was expecting
less than stellar performance.

But I was wrong. The transmitter and receiver connected with no issues, and Linux
detected a new display. Looking at the display settings, it was 4K.

I don't know if Google will find you a technical article on the
thing or not. Maybe only influencer articles are allowed.
Even Bing only shows seller sites.

Nice! Did not know of that device.
60 GHz should do gaming.
May still be a bit of lag though due to the RF conversions and back.

Thanks a bunch, Paul. I find I DO have an HDMI port on the back of my
flat screen to play with. Didn't remember it was there. Dunno if its
in or out though. Doubt I can find the manual for it. But the sticking
point is price. The project isn't worth $500 to me.
