marshmnI'm giving some Google 'mesh' WiFi adapters a try... (replacing previous TP-Link powerline network) - seems OK so far, but early days...15:10
marshmnvery nice and easy to configure15:10
marshmnand I already see some benefits - with my powerline WiFi adapters there seemed to be some issues with uPNP traffic not getting passed through very well (resulting in not being able to use Noson to control Sonos speakers)15:12
marshmnthat seems to work fine with the new setup15:12
daftykinsthe earlier adapters possibly didn't handle things at a low enough level, although to my mind the idea of wireless packets hopping multiple times is horrible - much rather wired infrastructure and access points centralised to a switche - but granted you might be renting or some such and not have that option15:15

* penguin42 is surprised they had problems with uPNP - I'd assumed they were layer215:17
daftykinsyeah i can't think what's up with that15:17
daftykinsi think lower end ones can fail to handle broadcast traffic of types o015:17
marshmnI'm renting - so yes, my options are limited15:31
marshmnI think that with the powerline adapters the uPNP traffic wasn't passed between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks15:32
marshmnat least that's my guess15:32
marshmnSonos devices only operate on 2.4GHz (I believe) and my laptop was on 5GHz15:32
