Description
Hi,
I started by using MultiPeer Connectivity directly and I have faced multiple issues concerning file exchange. For instance, I can send files only up to 5m distance between two nodes. Beyond this distance, file exchange is not possible.
Also, I try sending files of different sizes, ranging from 1KB to 10MB. Something, file exchange hangs with 5MB files and sometimes it works flawlessly.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I could not find any paper or document giving information about the limitations etc of MPC. I know it is based on Bluetooth and Wifi and, thus, should have the same performances as these technologies but if someone has any information about that, I'll be happy to have them.
Thanks a lot.

Research direction
Start by reproducing PeerKit's file exchange through Multipeer Connectivity at distances around 5 m and with files from 1 KB to 10 MB. Compare successful and hanging transfers to determine whether the behavior is an application bug or an MPC limitation; the issue names no source file or test, and completion is not defined beyond clarifying the observed limits.
