[QUOTE="Tim Weaver, post: 88283, member: 317"] Re: Wireless routers Is there a verifiable instance of anyone "hacking" a show network? Ever? It doesn't seem very likely to me. Considering most big venues are searching people for weapons, drugs, and video cams, how are they gonna get a laptop in the venue to hack your network. And for what reason? The real answer is to use a solid router and an antenna system that offers plenty of gain, and maybe some directionality. Then turn off ssid and maybe use some encryption (encryption will slow down your throughput however). Personally I use an open network for speed. I connect on the 5Ghz band and have ssid disabled so that the punters are not facebooking on my network. It's been good enough for me. Although if I lose connectivity it won't kill the show. I just have to reconnect and sync up again.... [/QUOTE]
