This board is for when your controller has only one port or no free ports. If you have a free port, app_rpt works perfectly fine with your existing controller. Just set duplex=0 and linktolink=yes.

Not necessarily. We have a simple board (user-buildable project) that does that very nicely. I you have a standalone repater already hooked up to a controller this board can be put in-between them and it makes it into a very nice adjunct.

Is it possible to use a repeaters external controller and just use app-rpt for it's linking capabilities? I'm guessing there would be no way of avoiding the repeater id's and messages being sent out to any linked repeater nodes.
