I have an XR-18 at home that we have the Kemper hooked up to.
For the IP / tablet connection the recommendation is that even though wifi is supported on the mixer you don't want to rely on that alone. So get your own wifi router and make that part of your setup.
Use wired connections to the mixer and at least one computer that you can use to actually control it. The mixer is configured to use wired ethernet, NOT wifi. Then even if the wifi goes down (people complained about tons of cell phones trying to connect to the mixer wifi during the actual show making it go down) you'd have control over the mixer through the wired connection. Now if you have a X32 with the actual physical controls, I don't think it makes it that risky. That being said, a dedicated wifi router is probably more robust than the mixer built-in one.
So the tablets / phones to adjust the personal mixes would connect to the mixer through the wifi router, NOT directly to the mixer wifi access point.
(As for the audio connections I have the Kemper going to three inputs on the mixer, stereo out + DI. You can also use the very same laptop to record the whole show through USB from the mixer to the laptop.)
