Hah! ![](//www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif)
For what it's worth, I appreciate how far the technology has come, and all of the issues involved with it. But none of that really helps when I just want to check my mail and go to bed, and instead get sucked into two hours of fruitless troubleshooting.
I'm pretty much a worst case scenario for wireless. I'm competing with a baby cam in the next room, which has *murdered* my bandwidth since we started using it. I'm also in a wood frame house with four condos in it, so we basically have four networks sitting directly on top of each other, in addition to all of the other networks in a moderately dense neighborhood. Also adding to my frustration is the fact that most of the devices I care about are wired desktop machines, but, for a number of reasons beyond my control, I'm stuck connecting them via wireless bridge.
