Wireless Client: Ion

I know this has been brought up many times before, but is there any formal release from ETC on how to set up wireless control from a client laptop to the ion? Ive read up on different posts about this but I am still foggy on what needs to happen in order for me to set this up.

Thank you everyone for your great help!

ETC uses reliable multicast which I'm sure you know is a bit like a multiparty TCP connection. Wireless access points have been seen reshaping the timing of network traffic--hording and bursting large blocks rather than sending packets as they are received. This misshapen traffic causes timing issues. We can ultimately do no better than a bad connection will allow, but we are always working to get the best out of even bad connectivity.

We will likely have some information for you that will help in the immediate term available for you shortly. No information can solve all problems with bad connectivity, but there are some common sense things that can help -- for example, filtering unnecessary network traffic away from wireless connections, and so forth.

Future enhancements to network protocols are likely to make them more adaptive to intermittent connectivity losses and traffic shaping problems like those seen on some wireless systems.
