Question

Answer 1

It depends of your reader and its capabilities. Usually readers have Ethernet port but does not support wifi by their own.

1. So your first task is to connect reader to pc using Ethernet cable and make it work as you like.

2. Then you need to make your program work on raspberry pi.

3. Finally you can plug your reader to wifi router. Connect Pi to the same network using wifi dongle and here you go, you have wireless reader.
