I did point out that some of these concerns do not apply if you control the building where you would be using WiFi, but if you look back at Jonathon's original message from 23 December he specifically said "for production on stage." I take "stage" to mean a concert environment, possibly in a different location every day, so different specific interference conditions every day, and where you do not have the ability to control the entire environment, such as whether someone in another band is cooking their food in a microwave directly behind the stage, or whether half the audience has the wifi hotspot of the phone turned on, or whether the venue has a lot of wifi webcams streaming video at the same time, etc. > http://www.howtogeek.com/171869/why-does-running-my-microwave-kill-my-wi-fi-connectivity/ > hth. Helps me or helps Jonathon? I would never try to run my MIDI equipment over WiFi during a concert, that's Jonathon's windmill to slay. ;) -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
