[Thali-talk] Have you ever tried using multi-peer connectivity with 3 or more iPhones simultaneously?

Cool!
               Thanks!

The number of iOS devices has no bearing on how things work. We've tried our models with two, three, and four devices running iOS 8. At one point last week I had four Mac computers attached to my three iPhone 6's and my iPhone 6 Plus, and everything remained the same.

Note: Look up, this is the public email list. :)

I know we have been running lots of experiments with two iPhones, but what about three or more iPhones? We have run into issues with Android in some cases (I'm mostly thinking about Wi-Fi Direct) where having one phone try to talk point to point to two other phones was problematic. For example, I believe that a phone can't simultaneously be a Wi-Fi Direct client and a Wi-Fi Direct group provider. (Jukka I'm sure will throw something at me if I'm wrong)

Do we have any similar issues with iOS? If we have 3 or 4 iPhones that want to essentially create a completely connected network with each other (e.g. every phone is talking to every other phone) will this work with multi-peer connectivity?

               Thanks,

                                                            Yaron
