In retrospect, the microwave probably also generates enough interference in the 2.4-ish gigahertz range to disconnect itself from the Wi-Fi when it’s running anyhow. Genius plan, there. Mine certainly poleaxes any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connections within a couple of feet of itself whenever it’s cooking.
Maybe that’s the real reason everyone wants us to be so keen on 5 GHz.

I run 5ghz, my microwave beats my WiFi connections like an alcoholic husband.
