hi bruce,

Can you just confirm that using something like the following 2 products will give me bulletproof wireless connectivity:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Plugable-Ethernet-Network-Adapter-AX88772/dp/B00484IEJS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1351699638&sr=8-1

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Apple-MC414B-A-AirPort-Express/dp/B008BEYP26/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1351699303&sr=8-2

If as you say its only a 30 second setup then of course thats fine. I havent seen the m20d in action and therefore cant picture the actual steps in setting up the wireless connection (and havent currently got an iPad!)

thanks

It's working now. But it's hard to connect sometime I need to do that sevrel time. I need to close all others app, make sure that the auto connect is on, close the iPad than open it. And let the iOS connect whit the network. Than open the SS app.

This is how I set mine up (using a router). It works great as long as nothing else is being used on the router (like splashtop or remote desktop). Also, my specific router drops the line-6 when using my shure wireless microphones. My lectrosonics microphones don't have the same issue (tried all the channels on the router, but no luck). I would definately suggest going the 5 GHz route if you decide to go w/the router setup.

"I love the apple airport express "

A cool feature operating this way is that you can simultaneously stream music from iTunes back to the mixer while running the remote app.

The range you get is going to depend on wi-fi conditions in the venue. In some rooms I get 25 feet and in others I can get over 100 feet. You will likely get greater range with an external router than with a dongle. That's just because they are likely stronger and because you can place the antenna up higher. Line of sight is important to maximizing range.

Bruce, thanks for this information. Will call my sis in Canada to get the necessary stuff. Hope FedEx does not let me down cuz I have a Gig on Saturday and will need the wifi to avoid the snake. By the way what sort of distance from the mixer are we looking at before drop out?

I dont understand about the problem with the router during setup. using the wifi dongle required you to plug it into the USB jack. using the router requires me to plug it into the USB jack "AND" plug it into power. No config, nothing else to wire up. maybe 30 more seconds!

but having a router is not really an option when you're having to setup the whole pa system each time you use it! Surely line 6 should be able to sort out a solution to this!
