Radar jamming Wi-Fi?

Question

WiFi

Hello.

Office in Novosibirsk in Akademgorodok. From the window you can see the local radar.

Unexplained problems with Wi-Fi in the office happen all the time. 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz - there seems to be a connection, packets do not go, reconnecting does not always save. Apple Airport Extreme and Cisco points in other offices work without interruptions. There is an idea that the Wi-Fi signal jams the radar. If you believe the wiki, then the frequency ranges of the radar of the American IEEE standard, including:
2-4 GHz air traffic control, meteorology, marine radars.
4-8 GHz meteorology, satellite broadcasting, intermediate range between X and S

Ours may somehow differ, but the fact is that the radar can operate at these frequencies.

Moreover, problems with Wi-Fi are a Korean random. For a few days everything is fine. And then for a few days everything is bad, and naturally it irritates everyone. It was foggy last night, the planes couldn't land. Wifi didn't work well all night, constant interruptions according to the logs. The radar probably worked all night too.

I wanted to know the opinion of the crowd, do you think this is possible? Maybe someone faced such problems also near the radar?

We can’t completely turn off Wi-Fi.

UPD:
Judging by the appearance, it is 10 * 40 meters and 50 in height approximately. It is deployed to us on the side that is 10 meters.

Answer 1

I think the key word here is interference.
And the description of the syndromes is similar, and the input data is suitable - the radar is a rather powerful thing + it works at the same frequencies

This suggests that the radar has nothing to do with it. IMHO the radar works if not 24/7, then certainly not randomly.

Answer 3

Is the relay (emitter) directed at you?

Answer 4

I had a funny story: from time to time wifi fell off at home. I began to alternately turn off home appliances in search of "what is phoning on the air." The situation turned out to be incredibly funny - RF garbage at WiFi frequencies was given out by a microwave oven at the moments of start-up and shutdown (heating itself). I solved the problem by installing an access point with a higher signal strength and setting the client devices to a higher work power (here you will have to play around with both the gain and the supply voltage, if possible in your devices).
Perhaps repeaters and more powerful clients will help in your case. You can also play around with the WiFi channel, both increasing the number up and decreasing it down (no matter what they say) - it helped when I set up WiFi near power lines (the distance to it is 50m), I would also play with the b / g protocol first of all / n - they operate at different frequencies and your radar may not be playing on one of them.
