Okay, trying to piece together something.

My reading of SR4/SR4A and associated books seemed to say a few things:

1. Technomancers are really uncomofrtable in dead zones, IE areas without wifi coverage.
2. Wifi coverage isn't everywhere. Particularly, it seems to be an urban/suburban thing. Rural areas, the backcountry, and the open sea don't have wifi coverage, they get their matrix hookups through other means.
3. 1 and 2 taken together means that TMs are, at best, very uncomfortable in the environments posited in point 2. At worst, they're "curled up in a fetal position" uncomfortable.

The thing is that I can't figure out whether I'm right or wrong, or where it's stated either way.
