Device is an Arris Cable modem.
Connected by Wifi.
It is about 30 feet line of site from the Cable modem.
I was home alone. No interference... no microwave or TV. Just sitting watching the lights.

Well, this might not create any issues in practice. So one option is to simply use it, and see if connections actually drop.
Though 30 feet might be on the edge for 5 Ghz, especially if there are some barriers along the path. So you could try either disabling 5 Ghz or enabling fastlane on the 2.4 ghz radio.
