Agreed.
My understanding is that 2.4 GHz would put it somewhere between radio waves
and microwaves.
The energy per photon of this radiation is less than IR or visible light.
So it would be classed as non ionising and should not cause DNA alterations.
If the quantity were great enough, there would be a warming effect only and
I've never heard much in the way of proof of the adverse effects of
prolonged tissue warming.
I suspect that the field strength of urban AM radio stations is pretty high.
Although their adverse effect are more related to the crap spoken by Alan
Jones.

what i would rather know is whether there is a recommended distance from
anyone with experience; how close would YOU feel comfortable
wireless is 2.4 GHz spectrum = microwave
impact on you cells is mostly heat if enough energy is transferred
20+ cm should be safe unless you are boosting your signal or use a high
gain
highly directive antenna
