Neither you nor your girlfriend are going to learn much if you ask for
instant answers. I think it's called plagerism, cheating, and
wasteing time. Interestingly, the questions are not particularly easy
and are apparently cleverly worded to discourage Google searches. You
actually have to understand how radio, wi-fi, IP networking, and
802.11 work in order to answer the questions. Also, since this is
apparently a skool problem, you both have resources available that
will be more than happy to help you select appropriate reading
material. It's also considered bad form to have others do your
homework for you:

See section on using usenet for homework and class projects.
Incidentally, you could just test what happens when you actually try
all three conditions. All it would take are two wireless router and
two laptops with wireless. Since you're apparently on RoadRunner
cable, you should have enough bandwidth to simulate two independent
ISP's. Use IPerf for benchmarking.
