Does C1 has an option for wifi (like S3 does).

Has anyone explored this yet?

The C1 uses a cost-reduced Beaglebone Black as the controller, there is no wireless radio.

Concur. Bitmain suggests creating a wifi bridge using a second wifi router as a client for your main router. I can't figure out how to do this and maintain an acceptable level of security for other devices on my network, so I fell back to hardwire. I imagine it is possible to create such a bridge, I just don't know enough about networking to do so comfortably.

I really don't know why BitMain moved away from the the controller board they used in the S1 and S3 (well I guess I do...the answer is cost). This is unfortunate; wifi is/was a great option for me. I never had an issue with decreased speed, reliability or anything else. And wifi made it super easy to move miners around the house (e.g. out of a guest bedroom if we had guests, etc).

Bitmain, maybe you could offer the older controller board as an option for a few bucks more?
