Just further FWIW to clarify I have about 20 devices in my home on the network (2-storey house) and I only have 5-6 on my Wi-Fi WLAN; being my SBT in my secondary set-up (in master bedroom upstairs) and my fiancée's and my mobile devices (3 iPhones & 2 iPad Minis between us - one of the latter is my old model iPad Mini 2 used solely as a controller for my main LMS system in the downstairs lounge). I have made sure everything else possible is cabled to reduce load on the WLAN I run. At my fiancée's house in another city (where her 2 sons currently live) they are reasonably active online gamers (PS3/4 / XBox) - and as soon as we turn up for a visit with our 4 iPhones/iPads on their 2.4GHz WLAN their gaming starts lagging and suffering as they also have 4-7 other devices on the same WLAN as well (theirs & girlfriend's phones/laptops, the TV, Apple TV, etc). We rectified this by upgrading to a reasonably high-end gaming router and running 2 WLANs - a dedicated 5GHz one just for their 2 game consoles, everything else on the 2.4GHz WLAN. While I would recommend 5GHz for the SBT, having so many devices on one WLAN isn't ideal IMO. *Hi-Fi 1*: QNAP HS-453DX NAS+QLMS/Allo USBridge Signature+Shanti LPS/Cirrus ESS Sabre 32-bit Reference DAC (Oppo 105D)/Yamaha Aventage CX-A5000/Focal SM9s. *Hi-Fi 2*: Sqbox Touch+Shanti LPS/Focal XS Books. *Hi-Fi 3*: PC+Squeezelite-X+Material Skin/Focal XS Books. *Hi-Fi Misc*: iPeng (iPad/iPhones)/Plantronics BB Pro 2 LE Headphones. *Accessories*: Tchernov -Classic- & Van den Hul ICs; Thor PS10 Power Station; Blue Jeans & Ruleconnect Cables (Power, HDMI, USB & Coaxial); Aurios & Vibrapods. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mycenius's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56466 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111529
