So you could have a 1500 Watt WiFi hotspot?
without a doubt you could, the problem is, i think it breaks a few laws?

In most areas the limit is around 3watt for the 2.4 GHz band.

Usually, that is about 2km to 5km if the wifi transceivers chips don't throw a fit.

Line of sight networks were actually quite common until very recently.

I seem to recall reading that ad hoc networks like a MANET etc are currently very difficult to impossible to implement in real world situations, there are lots of technical problems, there have been a few claims by some that they have solved these problems, but havnt actually rather just ignored them or covered them up.

Put the entire internet on a huge memory storage in a large room. It'd be torture to have to hear Rebecca Black's voice every time I send something across the internet.
