@SJ: What channel is your WiFi set at? Default is usually channel 6.
You could try changing it to either end, 1 or 13 (I think it's 13 for USA), and see if it improves. Might be someone using a WiFi repeater link that happens to pass over your property.
If it's something that isn't specifically WiFi broadcast related then I'm not sure the apps Wraith mentioned will help, you really need a Field Strength Meter.
I don't suppose there's any HAM Radio people you know that can help?-4wd (November 09, 2016, 05:23 PM)
And you report this on the DC forum because...?-Ath (November 02, 2016, 02:24 AM)
I get the feeling that's the reason behind a lot of his posts. He can be assured an answer of some sort.Since adblocking is built-in to Slimjet it makes ad-blocker extensions/add-ons superfluous. Chrome, however, would still need a blocker.

@Curt - I do not believe that the situation is intentional. I suspect that something in the (strictly residential) vicinity is either saturating a channel, gone a tad out of spec, or both. e.g. there's no need to get the - instant over complication - Fuzz involved ... Even if I could get them to stop laughing long enough (small southern town...) to take a report.-Stoic Joker (November 09, 2016, 07:17 AM)

Interesting article. Glad I was too lazy to install most of them.
Although for me uBlock Origin was not a viable alternative. The cure was worse than the disease. Enough sites went weird with it running that I just got rid of it.-MilesAhead (November 09, 2016, 09:33 AM)
contact the proper authority and complain; Radio frequencies are potential dangerous and must be controlled accordingly.-Curt (November 08, 2016, 09:50 AM)
I do hope you're joking - Because that's never gonna happen.-Stoic Joker (November 08, 2016, 11:15 AM)
That is why it is generally preferable to upload images directly to the DC forum itself rather than use an external image hosting service: So that images attached to posts will stick around as long as the forums do, rather than for as long as the external site keeps them around.
We've lost some good stuff due to 3rd party image hosting.-Deozaan (November 07, 2016, 09:10 PM)
Wait, what's the point to defrag a flash drive anyway?-ConstanceJill (November 04, 2016, 06:36 PM)
You never want to defrag a flash drive. Flash memory wears out. And defragging uses up reads and writes from the flash drive's lifetime.-wraith808 (November 04, 2016, 09:57 PM)

As part of GOG.com's Monstrous Fall Sale, they're giving away Little Big Adventure 2 if you claim it within the next ~39 hours from the time of this post.
I can't say for sure whether or not LBA2 is any good. But free is free.-Deozaan (November 03, 2016, 02:50 PM)
I guess they have a merchant account so the fee is not handled like it is for personal accounts. DUH!-MilesAhead (November 03, 2016, 11:10 AM)
I think PayPal still charges a fairly significant fee, which is why $1 is the minimum. They're probably only getting like $0.60-$0.70 when you only pay $1.-Deozaan (November 03, 2016, 02:37 PM)
my hat's off to you Mouser for doing the newsletter. I figured it would take longer than 1 day to make it happen.
is the newsletter actually needed? I mean is it something people have requested?
just wondering.
