The solution to all wireless problems is... wires.

  Makes me hope that "li-fi" pans out. Basically combo powerline data with rapidly blinking (1000+ hz, iirc) leds to be able to give specific rooms wireless data. And if the light is polarized, a simple coating on the windows that match can let light in, but not data out.

    Better yet, directional li-fi through transparent panels on your devices guided by compact adjustable optics. Example of what tech such optics could use: Solid-state variable optics: https://www.osapublishing.org/oe/abstract.cfm?uri=oe-18-13-13981 https://www.osapublishing.org/oe/abstract.cfm?uri=oe-18-13-1...

    Actually need to blink closer to 10^8 Hz :)
