External router for XR18?

[sth]

I use the 5GHz radio on a Mikrotik wAP ac w/my Mackie (DL16S). In big rooms, I perch it on top of one of the FOH tops (to reduce impediments to line-of-sight) and thread the Ethernet cable through the speaker cab’s top handle in its way to the stagebox to hold it in place. This has been *mostly* bulletproof, but I did have to fall back to a wired connection to my laptop once, and that was only because I made a poor troubleshooting decision that couldn’t be reversed in the field.

Thanks to all of you for the advice.

I've invested seven British pounds on an old Talk Talk dual band router, so fingers crossed. Expect another post in a few days asking for help setting it up...

That much?

I have a handful of old TalkTalk routers which I've used with no problems for X32 and XR18 over the last 5 years. You might have to put up with a "no internet found" message on connecting to the router, which you can just ignore, and then proceed.
