You can use two radio modem such as those made by Maxstream or visit: www.keytelemetering.com The radio modem connects to the PLC's RS232 port and you can use NETCMD$ to send host link commands from the master PLC to the slave PLC.

You can connect the M-series PLC to XServer, and the XServer connect to a wireless bridge to your wireless LAN.  This way each M-series PLC is part of the LAN and they can send message to one another.
