Comment:

 How many XOs? We know that we have trouble with any RF transmission if
 there are 10 or more XOs in a closed space. If there are lots of other RF
 devices, it might be difficult to connect at less than 10.

 We connected 32 laptops to an AP and school server at 1CC; and we can get
 only 10 XOs in simple mesh mode.
