never surprises me that most routers default to "full beans" ... but he is kinda
wrong as well...
just because the wifi router is sending at 100mW and his phone only uses 20mW is
not everything.... beleive me... 20mW is good enough to go at least 1/2 a mile
with decent antennas.
there are so many reasons as to why a phone/device would be disconnecting from t
he AP and so forth. the main cause of stuff like this is interference from other
routers/devices etc. if you sit and watch the video, he was like... "i forgot t
o turn on the second router/AP".... this was the reason why his phone kept disco
nnecting lol.
