Wifi router troubles

A router is not needed if you assign your network setting manually and don't plan on accessing outside networks.

I first want to buy a couple for at home. I understand they don't work good with other wifi networks using the same SSID, so I plan on switching of the wifi of my D-Link DIR655, and connect these as a Access Point.

For the X32, it would be nice to have them, with just one UTP cable needed to connect, that way I can easily put them up high above the audience.

You may only need one to cover your house. These have great coverage compared to other access points.

Fast delivery. :razz:
I installed one, the standard unify, not a long range and this looks good. With just one connection cable I have also more freedom to put it on a better central spot. With wifi analyzer I see an improvement of about 10-15dB.

Instead of buying a different router for my X32, I think I will buy a unify dual band version. Allthough they are more expensive, I hope to use the 5GHz when the 2.4GHz is to crowdy.

Why not just use 5gHz all the time?

I'm afraid that it is difficult with long ranges or a lot of steel...
But maybe it's easier to solve as a far to crowdy 2.4GHz. (Maybe 2 AP's)

Anybody tried to connect 2x mixing console (FOH & monitor) say for instance X32 to one net and connect at both places an AP?
So 2 cat cables (Ethernet and audio) to FOH and 2 swithes (or 1 router and a switch) for ethernet connections.

That way you can connect to both consoles at both locations (different IP) and have best coverage at these positions.
When walking around the venue I can live with a less good connection...

At home I think I don't need 5GHz because there's not much traffic around, I just need coverage.
