C'mon, I said I "misread" the article. Which is a form of reading. Of the article.

I actually misunderstood a large swathe of the article, as I didn't understand at first read that it was just an advertisment for this type of modem that the guy had to install 5 of in his house. Might have been cheaper to rewire with Cat6.
