We used Writelog with Wireless connections in the CQWW SSB 2010 @ VK4UC in a
Multi Op environment with no issues other than operator errors.
Each band had an amp and NO RF issues but some bands did use Cat5...

I had tried with 10.84 version an adhoc network.
I had 2 computers running vista and windows7. The connection were wireless.
The second computer was used to connect in clusters and as backup log. The
first one was connected to clusters via the first one. I tried this system
in WPX ssb. It worked very reliable at the start. As the qsos number was
growing the sytem lost its stability and the second day was working for 1
hour and stopped again and again. Writelog never worked 100% in network for
me. Maybe it's my fault. I think that i am over the average computer user
and i can not make it to work easily. I think something goes wrong. I have
tried in network n1mm and wintest also but not under heavy conditions.
Wintest seems that will not ever crash. It works reliable even your
computers are connected via internet. I repeat that i have not tested it
under heavy conditions. Writelog works ok under the same conditions but not
with many qsos, many cluster spots, etc. So i am not sure for these programs
also.
