Largest study with over 400,000 test subjects show no dangers in cell phones. Cell phones are about 8 million times stronger at 10 millimeters away compared to an Access Point that's 10 meters away. This is because objects that are 1000 times further away are 1,000,000 times weaker due to the Inverse Square Law of physics. Since cell phones are safe, it's absolutely crazy to say that Access Points are dangerous. Since Cordless phones are 1,000,000 times stronger at 10 millimeters away and everyone at some point in their life has used one (or a Microwave oven), it is ludicrous to claim Wi-Fi Access Points are dangerous or that you can somehow "feel it". If you're truly affected by a Wi-Fi Access Point, a cordless phone or microwave oven should outright kill you. This is all junk science. Here you go.
