Hi there, yes I took a chance on this router and ordered one from Thomann in Germany.
Has been excellent, and I endorse Karyn’s comments already posted.

Although I have an older Presonus 24.4.4 mixer, I’m using this router with a Yamaha TF Rack mixer. The router has never caused a problem. A big improvement on consumer type routers I’d used in the past.
The fact it is designed to mount in a rack case is a very tidy, and a big plus.

We also used the same router to send wirelessly to our projectors, and thus far this has caused no problems for us.

Unfortunately, something is going on with the availability of these units. I recently bought a second StageRouter and another Extender (another gem) because they appear to be all discontinued now so I got them while I could. It looks like the StageRouter is no longer available at this time.

I contacted NowSonic because neither of these products are available on their website but they still sent me the latest firmware. They stated that the reason they were not listed was :

New regulations by the European Union regarding wireless systems in general, currently force us to update the accessories and product description of our Stage Router range. The products will go online again as soon as everything is resolved.


I guess only time will tell but it's been quite awhile now and I don't think it looks good. It is so unfortunate when a great product goes away. I remember when I used to have wi-fi issues and how frustrated I was...I have done hundreds of shows with these units in every type of environment and they are simply outstanding units and perform flawlessly. Too bad more people didn't know about them or were willing to step up and pay a bit more...I guess I got mine and I am happy for that. Built like a tank so I am expecting it last years.

I don't do anything on stages, but I am having a hard time understanding why anyone would use wireless in audio production due to the latency. I also don't use a router to in any way mix audio. I read through several of the posts here, but I just use a simple cables no wireless gigabit (10/100/1000) router and Cat 6 and up cables to my network. I am writing this on Jan 22, which is the day it was posted 7 years ago, and also the day it was last active 5 years ago. This is the only real reason I am writing this, cause I just noticed the birthday of the topic thing... well yes I was also curious who uses wireless anything for audio it always adds too much latency to be useful. Just that.
