Oh, I haven't found a need for them. I have plenty of hubs, routers and cat 5
cables.
I turn off at both houses, (country and town).

I'm with Charles on this one (although I don't have country & town residences).
I DO have 13 cats, and as yet, I'm unconvinced of the safety of exposing them
24/7 to 2.4GHz EMR.
Cat5E is cheap - well, as cheap as anything is here in the UK.
Bluetooth I use very occasionally - rarely for more than 5 mins at a time, but
with a G5 desktop & a MacPro desktop, neither of which are readily portable, I
haven't needed to even consider WiFi.
