My wi-fi connection intermittently dropped to almost nothing. This
annoyance occurred seemingly randomly and infrequently. It did occur
enough to be irritating, so I checked around the house for things that
could cause this behavour. I dont have a microwave or a cordless phone
so I was stumped.
Then today the neighbour in the apartment/flat opposite received cold
callers (as did I) when I noticed it was her 'wireless' doorbell that
was causing the connection drop. Weird, but true.
Amazingly she agreed to change it to a wired one, on provision I paid
and fitted it. I cant argue with that. I find it amazing that that was
the cause of the problem. I tried it a number of times and sure enough,
each time I pushed the doorbell, the connection was lost.
