   Well of course you could take the approach of wildly adding more and   
   more wireless routers, without knowing where the dead spots actually are   
   or where there is interference from nearby wireless routers, but that   
   would be an exceedingly stupid thing to do, so it's not surprising that   
   nospam would think that this is a good idea.   
      
   It's like a car mechanic who wildly replaces components because they   
   lack the skill or equipment to properly diagnose a problem, i.e. "let's   
   try replacing your $1500 computer, that might fix the problem, oh, that   
   didn't work, maybe it's the $2000 catalytic converter, oh that didn't   
   work, maybe it's this wire that fell off the oxygen sensor, I'll just   
   push it back on, all fixed, you owe me $3500 for parts and $2000 for labor."
