Wi-Fi dropping whenTV turned on
Periodically When I turn on the TV connected to PVR that is Ethernet to the gateway, we lose wi-go or internet. We have boost extenders to improve reception in the office.
We have a fibre connection and TV works when this happens.
Any ideas on what happens?

As i know the PVR or the TV might be operating on the same frequency or channel as your Wi-Fi network, causing interference and disrupting the Wi-Fi signal. You can try changing the Wi-Fi channel on your router to avoid the conflict. Most routers have an option to automatically select the least congested channel.

That's definitely an odd situation and not something you should be experiencing; nor should you need to be rebooting your equipment on any kind of regular cadence or as a result of taking one specific action. If it occurs again, reach out to our Tech Support team at 1-888-811-2323 so they can connect from their end and investigate!
