Re: Is it important?

“...(covering the entire 2.4 GHz band” — that’s a bit selfish and pointless

“, plus a couple of 5 GHz channels” — why?

“...One of the routers has a Yagi antenna aimed at the lake.” — what lake? Why?

“There are two or three additional Gb switches. “ - why? What’s the point you’re making?

“Everything is wired up with STP (Cat 5e/6) Gb cables.” — why STP?

“I had to ensure that the IP addresses, “ — well, yes, this is standard stuff

“WiFi channels” — So?

“ and DHCP settings in the multiple routers didn't conflict. “ — why are you using DHCP settings in multiple routers? Have you not understood the point of a LAN?

Finally, why do you use their router anyway? None of what you’ve written makes sense outside the context of someone who just likes to throw their money around at routers.
