Alex,
My advice ( take it with a grain of salt if you wish ) is to hardwire your rig with good cables to your laptop in your Observatory. This eliminates the possibility of wifi signal drop outs, bandwidth issues etc...
These wifi dongles have their use in smaller more portable and remote set ups but in a big permanent Obs with your big rig , hardwired system is the best way to go IMO
Best

PS: I’ve read on various forums inc CN , these Skywatcher wifi dongles have known to give folk trouble from time to time but again they have their use and versatility.
