Re: farraday cage homes said by PrntRhd:There can be metal mesh used inside the homes used as plaster lath, there can be chicken wire used here in California as stucco lath on the outside walls, there can be wire mesh used to hold bricks and mortar together in traditional English Tudor construction. All of these attenuate wireless signals. Another California resident here with this issue. This is not an issue for just old homes; in California, stucco (with chicken wire) is popular in new homes as well. |

| Don't all California homes get destroyed and rebuilt every couple of years because of
-earthquake
-rain
-landslide
-high waves
-fires
If so, then it should only be a couple more years before all homes are wi-fi friendly as they start to use fibreglass instead of chicken wire in the structures  L |

Stucco facing allows the building to move in a quake but not peel off the entire wall face and bury someone walking nearby like brick and stone masonry would. |

I grew up there and eventually want to move back...so please keep stories like this going. That way one day I can afford to move back. |
