My mother recently bought an iPad. In order to let her go on line it in the front room of her house I moved her router into the hall.
Since the move, the wifi connection to any device seems to disappear every 5 minutes or so for about a minute. This didn't happen before I moved the router.
I noticed today that she has a wireless thermostat also installed nearby in the hall (only about 4' away). It's labelled "British Gas RC Plus".
is it possible that the thermostat is causing the problem? The loss of signal even happens when the CH/HW is off but I guess the thermostat might still be "chirping" to the boiler regularly.
I should add that she lives in a tennement flat and there are quite a lot of other wi-fi networks around. I have tried changing the channel once but this made no obvious difference.
