For devices where connectivity is more important, switch them from 2.4Ghz to 5Ghz to avoid microwave interference.

Other than phones and laptops (i.e. "real computers"), most devices only support 2.4, no? I can't recall the last time I set up a non-computer device that didn't say "make sure you're using a 2.4GHz network"...

(I imagine it's a much lower cost to only handle 2.4GHz?)
