wifi interference

Can ionized air interfere with wifi ?

[MisterMK3]

Are you talking about like an ionizing air purifier?

Yes. We installed routers in the hallways and had wifi in the adjoining rooms. After installing air ionizers in the rooms wifi became weak. Have not been able to come up with any other reason for that since nothing else has changed.

That’s interesting. Does the WiFi signal become stronger when all air ionizers are turned off?

 

How many “routers” do you have installed? Is this for a home or business? I hope you realize that these “routers” shouldn’t all be running in their default configuration if they’re all wired together or on a wired uplink to a central switch. They should be running in AP mode on different non-overlapping channels for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
