[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 132617, member: 1285"] Re: Wireless routers In a 20K crowd, there are probably more than 10K devices, of which a considerable fraction are going to automatically try to connect to any visible network. A tiny fraction of those devices "might" try to connect to a hidden network. The question is, do you want traffic interference from 9K devices or from 9? Generally: In a large venue, I'd go for short range set up in defined areas, 2-4 wire-networked access points, and a wired connection a foh. While my experience is mainly with audiences below 500, I see a trend towards heavier congestion all the time, to the point where I'm now reluctant to rely on wifi for showtime control with anything above an audience of around 200 within range of my ap. Thus, for the larger venue, wifi is more of a set-up and soundcheck tool when the venue is relatively empty. [/QUOTE]
