R7000 - ISP Says My Router broadcast is Interfering w/ ISP's Incoming Wirless Signal
I have wireless ISP service. There is a 'radio' receiver on the roof which receives the signal from a repeater in the neighborhood - it is line of sight transmission. From there it is wired into the house to a central hub where I have the R7000 which broadcasts to the house and also to a variety of wired devices. My ISP says my router's wireless signal is being detected on the roof and is interfering with the ISP's incoming signal and therefore disconnecting us from the internet intermitantly. They say it is NOT a channel issue. They are running on Channel 8 and my router is on Channel 1. This particular router has beamforming technology. I have implicit beamforming enabled. They used to say that "n-Band" routers interferred with their signal, but with AC technology, that would not seem to be the problem. I'm wondering if you have any suggestions for other things for me to check to prevent the router signal from reaching up to the roof - besides a 'tin-foil hat' which we have already tried! Maybe we need a bigger hat? OR - other suggestions!??!! Thanks in advacne for any help you can provide. DebSolved6.9KViews0likes8Comments
