Lol, not how that works. Still though, there’s interference everywhere. Portable phones, Bluetooth, and even some remote controls cause interference with 2.4GHz. Even USB 3.0 ports on the computer you’re using it on cause interference.
Yes, but, the microwave issue is particular to the specifications and requirements for microwaves.
Most people will believe a microwave is a Faraday cage and thus no wavelength greater than half the grid size can escape. As microwaves are 3cm they cannot escape.
The trouble is, it’s not that simple. The truth is that most microwaves have strict, but substantial leakage allowance. If and it’s a big if these days, they are actually local RF regulations compliant.
While a microwave may have a total leakage allowance measure in milli-watts. As milli-watts of 2.4Ghz is not going to pose any health hazards and won’t case any major RF interference on the larger scale such as would affect radio comes, datalinks and telecoms.
However, even a few leaked milliwatts of 2.4Ghz microwave is going to play havoc with your 2.4Ghz Wifi.
Not all microwaves are as bad as others. The way to test your own microwave is pretty simple. Just put your phone inside the microwave and test your Wifi signal. If you get one, your microwaves is shit. Get a better one. If you can’t see or contact the phone while it’s inside the microwave, chances are your microwave with not interfere with your Wifi.
No it isn’t pointless and yes it will make a difference. An Ethernet cable isn’t going for half its bandwidth when a microwave turns on.
Get a better microwave.
