Hello,
I have new neighbors who recently had Ixfinity install service in their apt.
I live in a 3 family house and had tge sane service for years. Suddenly my wifi goes on and off. Can someone block wifi services?
I know it happened around hospitals appr 10 years ago.
Help is appreciated!

Likely interference. Could be the new neighbor's network or some other wireless component - a baby monitor for example.

Do you have an wired connections? If so verify that your wired services are all working as normal.

Then look at your wireless devices and identify the frequencies and channels being used by your network.

Try other another wireless configuration (E.g., 2.4 or 5.0 for frequency and/or other channels within each frequency).

Do not change every wireless device. Just work with one until you find a configuration that is more stable. Then start re-configuring other wireless devices one by one.
