# Advice

For coffee shops (high turn over, lots of clients), one place was able to get
by with commodity router running dd-wrt plus goofy big omni antennas. trick was
to set short DHCP lease times (~10min so lease table stayed small) and to
enable some sort of "AP isolation" (probably turn of layer-3 routing, so
mDNS/bonjour packets don't go client-to-client)
