Oh, so if we're trying to imagine how bright a wifi router's "light output" would look if we could see it, we can just imagine a 60W (monchromatic, say green) lightbulb. Of course the light would pass through walls more easily which is a bit unusual :) But for attenuation over free space, I think the analogy to a 60W light bulb is very useful.
