The only reason I thought about multiple connections was due to this post
over at the forums

http://www.cbusforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5350&highlight=wiser+multiple&page=3

'Wiser allows up to 6 simultaneous connections so you could have a Media
Center plugin, Web Browser at home, Nokia n95, Nokia E61 and others
connected and simultaneously in-use if you really wanted.'

So it appears you can have multiple connections to the Wiser unit, I assume
this keep track of connections etc.

So I guess the question is with a Wiser do you connect the toolkit to Wiser
or the inbuilt CNI?
