We have so many bigger problems with modern homes than worrying about WiFi penetration...
You know how it costs to add a WiFi access point? Maybe $100? How many thousands of dollars will it cost to change the construction materials?
I'm usually a fan of The Verge but this is dogshit journalism.
He says at the end how he "knows this stuff" because he's a tech journalist.
But he doesn't know what an Access Point is? Or that those built in wireless routers are dog shit with small antennas and terrible range.
He's probably the kind of person that would bitch that his backyard doesn't get wifi from the ISP provided router on the other side of the house.
