Ethernet to another computer and use one of the remote desktop programs? 100Mb is almost as good as being on the keyboard. Gigabit might not run at Gb speed even with Cat6 cable, but does not need a hub or cross-over cable. Not all laptops/notebooks have Gb.

Currently driving off my laptop next to the scope but as I said the wild life is getting worse.
One of those small tents intended for a shower or toilet, run the cables through the door and zip it shut?
