What are the main causes of Wi-Fi interference?

Main Causes of Wi-Fi interferenceOther Wi-Fi Networks – Nearby routers using the same channel can overlap and disrupt your signal.Electronic Devices – Microwaves, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, and baby monitors can emit signals on the same frequency (especially 2.4 GHz), causing interference.Physical Obstacles – Walls, floors, and furniture—especially those made of concrete, metal, or brick—can weaken or block Wi-Fi signals.Distance from Router – The farther a device is from the router, the weaker and more unstable the signal becomes.Signal Congestion – Too many devices connected at once can cause slower speeds and signal clashes.These interferences can lead to slower speeds, buffering, or even disconnection.
