We have an upcoming gig where we’re going to need a Qu-32 for the majority of acts, and a sidecar Qu-16 to cope with one “turn” that’s physically located in not quite the same space.
Now we’re well up on using the iPad and iPhone apps and well beyond rookie level with Ethernet networking.
Basically you can talk to us like grown-ups with all that network stuff.
So here we go.
While we’re very aware that firmware v1.7 allows us two iPads to address one mixer, is it possible to connect TWO mixers to the same wireless network, and then iPad control them separately over the same Wi-Fi channel?
Our current wireless router is a dual-band Gigabit one with 300Mbps data rate on each frequency, so it’s unlikely that will be a stumbling block.
We’re comfortable with any IP addressing issues either using the router for DHCP or allocating fixed IP addresses if necessary.
Where we see the potential snag is possibly in the iPad app, where on connecting to the network, it can’t differentiate between the two Qu mixers.
We THINK we can see a possible workaround by using 2.4GHz for one mixer and 5GHz for the other, where we configure MAC filtering in the router to isolate the devices from each other.
Then we’d lock the respective iPads to each network.
Our biggest PITA is that we’re not going to get all the kit in the same place until 24 hours before the event, so until then we’re making educated guesses.
Are we talking total bo**ocks here, or has anyone else been down this route in some shape or form and can offer useful hints and tips?
We can fall back to using separate routers on different channels (the location is thankfully Wi-Fi barren!)

Oh and did I forget to mention that we have 16 Sennheiser radio-mic receivers and 4 IEM transmitters potentially sharing the same Ethernet network for their IP-addressable control?
