I learned how expensive certain networking solutions can be, such as how expensive routers and modems are.

Yes

4. What did you learn that you found interesting?

I learned about how computers, smartphones, and tablets connected to the internet using WiFi, and what kind of hardware they used to connect to WiFi.
