Love reading these posts where a person implement their own solution to communicate with devices that have proprietary software that only support Windows. Thanks for sharing.

I agree so so so much. This is such a virtue: when humankind can access their systems.
I got downvoted to -4 for my rather strong worded praise of this virtue, one that the media & politicians seem to directly hate & be opposed to. There's a great Battlemesh presentation on FCC rule changes in 2014 that made it illegal to ship devices that users could modify, and since then OpenWRT has been in deep woes, has been having incredibly hard time supporting routers, for one example, with the Table of Hardware for support barely growing. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48486657

There are a lot of people on HN whose salaries depend on the status quo. Think of all Apple, Microsoft and Google "engineers" for example.
