You are probably correct.

I've not had a problem with wifi.

But do know of problems with using the new (chinese) BT Dect phones when
the dect base is next to a some Freeview set top boxes.


If the problems were wifi, then the problem may not have been Dect but
something else. But changing the wifi channel helps. For example, Wifi
channel 12 is completely unusable in my office, for some reason I've
never been able to explain.
