[QUOTE="Tim McCulloch, post: 141114, member: 67"] Re: Soundcraft UI12 wifi connection issues I have no experience with the Soundcraft, but the most common problems are with the iPads themselves (various settings, sometimes iOS version issues), wireless access point placement, choice of frequency band, and amount of WiFi traffic in your vicinity. I've had great success using WiFi for setup, system tuning and sound check but I've had some disconnects at show time that I mostly relate to the amount of WiFi traffic and venue guests with promiscuous phones and tablets. I've had failures with as few as 400 pax but had success with 4000 pax. Go figure. Moving to the 5 gH band helped until the most recent smart phone models that have both 2.4 and 5 gH radios enabled by default. It's still better than 2.4, but the advantage is narrowing. Try this: use your iPad and also connect your laptop to a wired connection on your 1900, CAT5 connection from the 1900 to the mixer, and see if the computer maintains the connection to the console when the iPad does not. If the computer and console maintain their connection the problem is almost certainly with your wireless connection conditions. [/QUOTE]
