No it does not. There is no "need" to mount it there, but if someone is as paranoid as you are about interference, doing so will ensure the connection is rock solid.Mounting a wifi router right next to a EVSE only strengths the need to get rid of the wifi.
But that overhead is insignificant for an application like the EVSE app. You have not presented any logical argument why 2-4ms (whether you want to call it delay or latency) matters in such an application.Apparent it is not obvious, the packet level I am talking about is encapsulating the Ethernet packets into Wifi packets that include CRC / checksum data, which is then transmitted.
Wifi does not need to be connected to internet work, it is just a medium.
They are not the same thing in this context. Typical radio communication has limited channels, no error correcting, and is very susceptible to interference distorting the message. Using your own example, if everyone ran walkie talkies instead of cellphones, the interference would likely be intolerable with even moderate traffic.Wi-fi IS radio. Cellular networks ARE radio networks. Cell phone are effectively no different than a "walkie-talkie" handled transceiver devices.
The more devices that use the same signal, the less reliable, lower bandwidth there is, and FHSS does not compensate for that.
Wi-Fi instead is designed to operate in very congested conditions and far more robust. And in this context, if you have zero wifi reception in your location in the first place (presumably the reason why someone would even want ethernet), then there wouldn't be interference concerns.
As for your point about a water pick device that interferes with radio communications (does it do so for wifi also, including 5GHz, and what distance), that most likely does not meet FCC regulations.
