It's unfortunate that someone deliberately comes up with something like
this that adds a lot of junk to a band that's already full of sources of
interference. Then there's that 2.4 ghz source you have in your kitchen
or office breakroom. I get my internet
connection wirelessly via the library across the street. My connection
dies whenever I use the microwave. While I'm waiting on my burrito to
cook, I can scan for available networks but won't find any.
Besides cordless phones, what sources of interference are there to
802.11n networks?
