"Among the pontetial effects could be intermittent performance...of the world's wireless communications network" Just because the link points to WiFi doesn't mean that that's what they meant by wireless communications network. I have no doubt that satellites, long range radios, and other high-power wireless _may_ be affected. But anyone who claims that WiFi is going to be affected by this flare is spreading FUD, IMHO.
