[QUOTE="frank kayser, post: 211465, member: 28"] Another couple options: 1. As mentioned, a higher gain directional antenna 2. A second (or third) access point / wireless router running the same SSID but on a different channel. That would allow you to roam seamlessly over a larger distance. In my cafe, I run three access points, same SSID for both 2ghz and 5ghz, and the three on different 2ghz channels (1, 6, 11) and three separate channels for the 5ghz. All this runs off a single Comcast line into the cafe. In fact, we run a POS for the restaurant on a completely separate network and router (Meraki), and five vlans and 4 SSIDs on a Ubiquiti Unifi gateway, switch, and APs.The Unifi Gateway and Meraki POS router plug into the switch ports of the Comcast cable "router", along with VOIP. 3. If it is not weak signal, but rather more folks, your only real option is to upgrade to a SOHO/commercial system that supports multiple IDs and VLANs. Shop carefully. Many of the business class systems also come with a hefty monthly maintenance charges) Leave the "public" SSID network open or guest, and have the business/sound on a different SSID w/WPA/PSK login and keep the data separate via a VLAN. Hiding the SSID is of minimal use. 4. Given this is a church, and hacking/spoofing probably not going on during service, that second business/sound could use a whitelist to allow just your devices MAC address. [/QUOTE]
