wheres the option for 0, only device i own that has wifi is my phone and i see no need to connect it to the router when im home. everything else is wired, 3 comps, 360, PS3, TV. I actually have broadcast turned off on the router 99% of the time.

actually the PS3 has built in wifi as well however its too slow to stream 1080p from the comp with using PS3 MS so its got a cable.

I voted 1-2, since only the laptop and my phone connect to any of my wireless AP's. However, I have do have 13 static IP's set up in my Pentium 3 pfsense router, 11 of those via wired connections. So I'm either low usage or uber-geek 😉
