The Martian is half right. However, a monopoly on a bus can be manipulated. It might not even be necessary to do so, IF the wireless card is capable. It probably is, not manufacturing one in this day and age is unreasonable. I just don't know how. Frequencies on the other hand are relevant but a little hurdle.

Herein lies the rub. Finding out what frequencies the wireless device uses, what encryption it uses, how it handles multi-tasking ...
