I'm surprised I haven't grown a second head yet. I have about a dozen different wireless apps now in the house. I’m surprised I haven’t grown a second head yet.

I have heard about WHDI, that works at 5Ghz and does pass 1080p/60hz through walls with same/higher quality. 60Ghz will never be able to go through walls, doors, etc. No way.

Phones and other wireless devices normally run at 2.4 - 5GHz, so that number is a slight shock even with the information being sent. I'm curious to what the highest power rate is these days in home consumer electronics. 2. This thought may be a touch old fashioned, but if a wireless HD adapter's signal strength COULD be powerful enough to bypass walls in a house, at what point does one's ambient living condition change to a state of detriment towards health? Living in the vicinity of large power generators can have major adverse effects towards brain function and while that type of field is a LONG ways off in commercial devices, is that ultimately the route we're taking with everything going wireless, or is there an intrinsic difference between the types of fields being generated?
