Router Setup
Goal
To provide wireless access to the sound mixer in the auditorium using an iPad.
Problem
- Cell Phones use the 2.4ghz range, and once the auditorium is filled with people, the 2.4ghz band becomes overly saturated. This causes the iPad to lose connectivity.
- The iPad periodically loses connectivity when a notification happens.
Solution
- Install a router to create a 5ghz only network for the mixer.
- Secure/obscure the router using a wifi password AND a hidden SSID
- Test iPad connection from various points in the auditorium.
- Setup “Guided Access” mode for the m200 app. This will stop the iPad from receiving notifications while connected to the mixer.
Specs
- Factory reset router
- Set new admin router password. (Write it down!)
- Set router IP address to 10.20.30.1
- Disable DHCP on router
- Disable 2.4ghz Radio on router
- Set 5ghz wireless name to: AHSMixer
- Hide SSID
- Wifi password:
