I think about adding a rasperry Pi to the Mendel90. By this way it is possible to administrate the printer located in the basement by WLAN without the need of another pc.
Did anyone try this before?

Have a look at Octoprint. I use it to wirelessly control mine and keep an eye on it via webcam.

Even though it takes longer, I recommend uploading the files to the SD card and printing from SD since it makes better quality prints. 3D printers shouldn't be in a hurry, it requires patience.

Alternatively you can run pronterface on the PI and control it remotely with VNC, I have been told by a couple of people.
