Comment on Network upgrades checkin

My neighbourhood has houses so close I could shake hands with my neighbours through a window, and they all have lots of wifi devices, so interference is inevitable.

Purely technically speaking you can fit all of wireless bands into a single fiber optic and have room to spare. Then you can run fiber in parallel. Wireless will always be a convenience thing for small portable devices which can’t have connectors. Technology is advancing on this front, but it’s reducing range all the time to keep the whole thing usable.
