Hello, I've been looking for hours, but can't find a way to connect my computer to any peripheral using just the wireless modem. I don't want to use any Rednet server/client methods.

Can anyone help me? I know it can be done using wired modems and network cables, so I'm guessing wireless should also be possible.

Wirelessmodems are not like wiredmodems. Wirelessmodems only connect to computers, not to peripherals. The only way to do what you ask is through having 2 computets with a wirelessmodem on each and then using rednet/modem api

Rednet is really easy to use, as is the modemapi. Can I ask why you need wireless peripherals?

I monitor my energy levels from all sources in a single computer next to a big monitor. I just build a reactor from Big Reactors mod and it is a bit far, so I wanted to do it wirelessly. I tried to use Rednet, but it just didn't work and I personally don't find it very enjoyable. I just wanted to wrap the peripheral with the wireless modem and access it's methods to print values on the monitor.

The modemapi Is the exact same for both wireless and wiredmodems. So if you know how to use wired, you know wireless.
If you want help with any of them, id be happy to help
