The *only* issue I've had a few times now, was that the wifi interface stayed powered up even after everything else shutdown. I *think* that happens (at least sometimes) if you leave the Helix software running and connected on your laptop when you close the laptop. I haven't tested it to be 100% sure, but ever since I made sure to exit the Helix app on my laptop before I close the laptop up, I haven't had the issue.
But that is a VERY minor issue that has only happened twice, I think. Barely worth mentioning.
Having the wifi controller also allows you to use a Helix phone app that has all of the functionality of the director (I think you need an ACO-based Helix though).
