You hit the nail on the head. All the owners are concerned
about are the TV shows and email and web. And that's it.
But when it comes to asking me to help with  making the
wifi-capable printer be accessible to all machines, or to
transfer photos from one computer to another, I have to
tell them I must reboot the router, and then, even then, I
have only 20 to 30 minutes of transfer time, after which
the router will clamp down on inter-lan traffic and I have
to start all over again. I explain to them that they must
force the isp to fix it.
So far, no go.
