Hello to everyone,
hoping to write in the proper section... I'm new in this field and I'd like to realize a project where two devices can talk together from distance. What I mean is: if I press a button on my device (might be a box with a simple botton) in Netherland, another person can receive an immediately feedback on another similar device in US (might be a led turn on).
My question is: what basic components I need to realize that? a wireless shield? or...?
Thanks in advance
Edoardo

Nope. This section is for THE Arduino project, not YOUR Arduino project.
My question is: what basic components I need to realize that?
For the distances you suggest, Ethernet or Wifi are the only solutions.
Thread moved to a more appropriate section. Good luck with your project.

Over that distance the easiest way to communicate is with the Internet - but it is unlikely to be immediate, or at least not all the time. And when you consider the need to connect the Arduinos at both ends to the web through something else it may be worth asking if an Arduino adds any value.
Another option might to to send SMS messages but that would be more expensive and with probably even worse performance.
I guess if you know enough about ham-radio there may be other options.

You could also use a gsm sheild and use sms but this could be expensive.
Thankkkkkkk you guys! Lets see what I can get... ! I'll be back for other advices
