    I believe they are "spread spectrum" devices which enables them to
    avoid mutual interference, not that I understand it but that's my
    impression.

        "Wi-Fi products use both single-carrier direct-sequence spread
        spectrum radio technology (part of the larger family of spread
        spectrum systems) and multi-carrier orthogonal
        frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology. The
        deregulation of certain radio-frequencies[by whom?] for
        unlicensed spread spectrum deployment enabled the development of
        Wi-Fi products, Wi-Fi's onetime competitor HomeRF, Bluetooth,
        and many other products such as some types of cordless
        telephones."    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi

    I need to buy a fig tree.

    And I am running the system on the Netgear WNDR3300 with DD-WRT
    installed. I'm still testing but so far the basics are working
    without a hitch!.
