Sorry, you are suffering from delusions of grandeur.
What you use is very low in my order of priorities.

Since you have been offensive, I will spell it out plainly.
I believe your knowledge and understanding of WiFi is minimal -
certainly far less than mine, and I don't claim to be very knowledgeable -
so I really don't think you are in a position to write a WiFi manual.

It is a bit like me writing a manual on DVD technology
after working out how to turn my DVD player on.

In my view, to write a WiFi manual or HOWTO
you have to have at least a minimal understanding 
of the underlying technology.
