Hi there
This is my first post to macnetworkprog, so I apologise if this is a FAQ or off-topic.
I’m currently implementing an OS X app using the Multipeer Connectivity Framework. The app forms part of a distributed audio performance by a ‘laptop orchestra’, but the main constraint is that due to the large size of the performance space (a cathedral, in fact), I’d ideally like my peers to be separated by a distance of, say, 30, 50 or even 100 metres.
As Apple’s implementation of multipeer networking uses a Bluetooth LE handshake, I am limited in distance to about 10 metres which is simply not enough.
