[AG-TECH] Wireless Multicast in Access Grid?

[Adam Taylor]

I use a Cisco 1200 AP B/A (only A Though) to link my laptop.  I do use
multicast (which works) but range is not very good (~25') before I start
seeing a problem.  However, I really only use the laptop for the shared apps
(powerpoint, etc.)  and for VNC into my boxes for configuration changes.
The AP is a little slow but not to the point of not being useful.  

 

My two cents..

Hi there,

 

I'm hoping to integrate a tablet pc as an input device into AG sessions and
it would be fantastic for it to be wirelessly connected. Just wanting to
know if anyone has a successful multicast wireless system they have
implemented with the Access Grid? If so what type of wireless equipment was
used and how was it setup? I had a quick try with one of our wireless access
points here but it doesn't seem to like multicast packets.

 

 

 

 

Regards,
