   OK. I'll ignore Trader_4 for the remainder of this thread...   
   o Starting now.   
      
   Besides, I think I've almost fully shot my wad on this topic unless...   
   o Unless one of the recipients wants to try it themselves.   
      
   They might have questions since you have to know what to buy   
   o And you have to know how to set it up   
      
   Which depends on what you're doing with it.   
      
   For example, if you're simply "painting the pool"   
   o So that the kids can be on their phone far from the house   
      
   The software switches will be different than if you're connecting to an AP.   
      
   Rest assured, this equipment can do anything you typically want to do   
   o Where the switches inside the router software make it what it is.   
      
   In summary, I haven't covered the software because it would only matter if   
   someone needs help setting theirs up - otherwise - all that really matters   
   is two things:   
   o The distances people volunteered are real - and very possible   
   o If you simply purchase this equipment - instead of the 'consumer' stuff   
      
   The good news is that it costs just about the same as consumer stuff   
   o But the bad news is that it's usually (not always) a bit larger stuff
