Default Zune Wifi Sync Question


I am looking into purchasing a few Meraki mesh routers.

However, Merakis do not allow for file sharing (security).
Does anyone know if this will effect the Zunes ability to sync over wifi, or if it is even possible over a wireless mesh network?


(Thanks in advanced)

I wouldn't think it was possible because the wireless mesh network would probably need a security password or some encrypted code for another thing to access it.

The Zune can connect to a encrypted network (given that it supports the encryption used). It is supplied the proper credentials when setting up wireless sync in Zune software.

As for file sharing, I do not think it would work. It looks like the Meraki network only lets computers and devices that are connected to it receive data from an ISP and send data to the ISP, and does not allow computers and devices to send and receive data between each other. It should not work.

Thank you for confirming my fear
So unless anyone else has any official statements or experiences,
I believe that my question has been answered
