Art-Net to DMX

So…. I’m looking at an Art-Net to DMX adaptor as I want to eventually control DMX from a tablet.
I currently think that I can hook a tablet to WiFi, connect an Art-Net-to-DMX adaptor to the router (RJ45) and then a wireless DMX to the Art-Net adaptor…

This should give me the ability to wander around and control the lighting from my tablet! This would be great for doing cuing and pointing the lights without being tied to the control desk!

…..I think! Need to do some more research!

…Looks like this is a cheaper adapter that is fixed to 2.0.0.x (Art-Net 1?)
A bit more money gets a nicer 1 I think…
