Not Worthwhile

I don't usually review books that I don't like, but this is an exception. I found this to be pretty much worthless for the purpose of helping me make a wi-fi connection, which is its stated goal. This sort of technical information doesn't work well in an audio format, because exact information doesn't stay where you can get it, but just flows on. Furthermore, I didn't find the recommendations of specific equipment very useful. Further-furthermore, I had some problems with my particular computer setup and found not one useful hint to help me resolve it.
