Just like the radio telegraph system, Guglielmo Marconi's invention, eliminated the need to erect poles for wired communication, the modern wireless solutions simplify installation requirements more than the conventional wired networking and improve reliability and productivity.

D: Just as the radio telegraph system eliminated the need to erect poles, so the modern wireless solutions simplify installation requirements more than the conventional wired networking does.
D implies that ONE ACTION happened (the radio telegraph system eliminated) the same way a COMPARISON OF TWO ACTIONS happens (modern wireless solutions SIMPLIFY MORE THAN WIRED NETWORKING DOES).
Not logical.
