I took a look at our wireless router in our office and noted ANOTHER factor that could affect the germination of seeds. The router has two fans on the rear that exhaust some pretty hot air.
Any seeds placed there to germinate would be dried out, and any that sprouted would also rapidly be dried out, at a faster rate than those placed a distance away. So even if the 'room' is the same temperature, the area in proximity to a large air-cooled wireless router would be hotter and drier than the rest of the room.
So death of the seeds near the router could be nothing more than a drier, hotter enviroment, and not due to the wireless radiation. A hard-working wireless router would produce more radiation...but also more heat!
Unless this factor is controlled then the experiment will ALWAYS come out the same, but the cause would NOT be the radiation! Example of an EFFECT (dead seeds) being blamed on the wrong CAUSE (wi-fi radiation) simply because the same mistakes are REPEATED (exposure to HOT AIR -

i i i fear you are trying to scare people from doing the experiment and have a hidden agenda.
your claim that routers have not 1 fan but 2 fans is most OUTRAGEOUS DISINFO i have ever heard.
i mean what kind of router do you have is it a coal powered router?
i have a router in front of me and it ZERO ZERO ZERO fans and when i touch it is slightly warm.
i went to my uncles ted's house and his router don't have fans either.my sister beth don't have fans on her router.
how do sesds grow outside where the temperature fluctuates all day.you claim that seeds could be effected from warm air from a fan in a router is pure goggledgook.
there are no fans in routers.
my uncles said your probably on someones payroll and he winked at me.
just admit it you are an agent working for them and trying to instill fear in us.

If you have a wireless router that can connect 20 to 30 users, then it may have two fans.

see again you have revealed your sinister agenda to hoodwink people.
What difference does it make to how many users are using it?
a radio station broadcasts and the signal is tuned into either by one listener or a million listener it makes no difference to the radio station.
see? i have defeated you again.
Most WiFi wireless access points / routers claim to support up to 255 connected devices. [...] Connecting 255 computers to a single WiFi access point, while theoretically possible, is not recommended. Performance of such a network will be very poor. Install multiple access points instead to distribute the network load. By adding more access points to the network, effectively any number of computers can be supported (though the network becomes progressively more difficult to manage).
On a home network, while dozens of computers and other devices may connect to the router, the performance of a shared Internet connection will quickly degrade as more computers access the Web simultaneously.
In some cases, routers will overheat due to the sustained heavy load. An overheated router will behave unpredictably, eventually disconnecting devices from the local network and crashing. Shutting down the router and allowing it to cool down solves the problem temporarily, but if this issue occurs often, ensure the router has proper ventilation (no vents blocked) and consider moving it to a cooler location.
Home routers can typically handle ten (10) or more connected clients, although if too many devices actively use the network at once, similar overloading problems can result.

Still don't know how a wi-fi router corresponds with the different wavelengths used by a smart meter transmitter!
I'm sure beckybecky can answer that one for us with her blond wisdom.

On the bottom the router has four large rubber feet to help it stay put on any surface, as well as a relatively large ventilation fan. This fan only works when the router is hot; during the entire time I tested it, the router never got hot enough to turn the fan on. The router is also wall-mountable.

ok, definite TROLL. Case closed. Mods, can we close this thread? No ignorance denial taking place.
Mr. Trower delivers a common theme – WiFi radiation is dangerous. He says that WiFi signals are equal to those used in microwave weapons and that they are threats to humans, particularly the elderly and children. When it comes to children and WiFi, Mr. Trower says, “children are physiologically
A number of organizations, including the Council of Europe, the European Environment Agency, UK Trades Union Congress, the International Commission for Electromagnetic Safety, and the Russian Commission for Electromagnetic Safety, have also given strong cautions about all technology that emits radiation similar to that of WiFi.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Toxicology Program have also studied the effects of non-thermal radiation on human health. Their updated results are that, among other things, radiation can significantly increase the risk of glioma, a deadly brain tumor. They have classified RF as a possible carcinogen, same as lead and DDT.
