Try it yourself - run iperf for 2 minutes, display the bandwidth report every second and then start the microwave for 1 minute. I get the thruput cut in half or or more when the microwave is on. Which is an improvement on the previous microwave which used to kill a wireless connection. (which was super annoying when the wife was doing work-from-home & I wasn't allowed to use the microwave _at_all_ during the day. I suspect that's the reason she got a toaster oven) Is it fairly well-known that microwave ovens interfere the most on channel 11? I just tried linssid again and there's a bunch of APs on channel 1 & 6, one on channel 2 and two on channel 8. Nothing on channel 11. LeeSo the microwave should be running 100% 24/7? What is it? Am I surrounded by 24/7 greasy spoons? I'm more inclined to believe in a buggy driver implementation. All the nearby Windows laptops run fine.In other words, you didn't try running iperf and then starting the microwave, right? Or you did and don't want to admit that your microwave interferes with wifi. Either way, take a look at https://www.acrylicwifi.com/en/blog/performing-wifi-spectrum-analysis-information-provided/#How_to_Perform_a_Professional_Site_Survey scroll down just a bit and see The most common devices that create interference and noise in a wireless infrastructure are: Some of those do run 24/7. And finally https://www.zdnet.com/article/usb-3-and-usb-c-devices-can-cause-problems-with-wi-fi-and-bluetooth-connections-but-theres-a-solution/ which I've never seen in action, just read about. Lee
So, we are all running the same frequencies on mobile phones. We all use mobile phones, so we should be all cancelling each other out? Something doesn't add up.
