AnonymousMy setup is a standard Linksys WRT54G router with 6dbi aerials on 6foot cables i can mount these high up and get great coverage.
I use standard WEP encryption and i my wireless laptop IP is set manually to 192.168.1.105
I have stood at FOH behind 18,000 people and still had a solid connection.
on the other hand i have been stood 10 feet away from the router and it has sometimes failed to connect..[?] Not often thankfully.
It does help to know the specific IP addresses of each component in the iLive system and it also helps to have a bit of knowledge on how wifi networks and IP addressing works.
Mikeidge – try it first without any wireless security and once its working then add WEP/WPA keys.
If you are using a Linksys router then they default to automatically assigning IP addresses from 192.168.1.101 onwards… you should ensure that no devices use the following addresses as these are used by the iLive system.
192.168.1.101 – Mixrack
192.168.1.102 – Surface (or touchscreen)
192.168.1.103 – Touchscreen (or surface)
ensure that you give your laptop a non conflicting address, say 192.168.1.104 subnet needs to stay set at 255.255.255.0 if memory serves me correctly.
You using Mac or PC?
