[QUOTE="Eric Eskam, post: 60516, member: 2124"] re: X32 Discussion BTW - if anyone is looking for an excellent, reliable and well beyond consumer-grade wifi access point to use with your X32, I highly recommend APs from Ubiquity networks. The NanoStation Loco would be perfect to mount in the case alongside your X32. And AirOS, the firmware that ships on the device, can provide DHCP so you can have a nice isolated network for just your sound gear. [URL="http://www.ubnt.com/nanostationloco"]NanoStation Loco | Ubiquiti Networks, Inc.[/URL] Should be $50 or less. It may take you a bit more to get it initially set up than say a linksys or other consumer AP, but it will be FAR more reliable than anything else in that price range.
