That Tuesday where everything went sideways in a new build
Had a job last week over in Maplewood, a brand new house where they wanted wireless sensors on every window... 32 windows in total. Got to window 28 and the hub just stopped syncing entirely, no error code or anything. Spent three hours on the phone with tech support before realizing the homeowner's WiFi mesh was on the same frequency as my panel. Has anyone else run into interference issues with those new mesh systems?

@beth_reed meant RF interference, not frequency. Smart fridges are usually on 2.4GHz too.

...and that's when I realized the homeowner's Alexa was arguing with my panel in binary. Took me another hour to figure out the smart fridge was also on the frequency, just sitting there listening to our conversation.
