Question

KathyB


What can a meter tell you of a neighbor's  wi-fi signal inside a house?

I know the Q-link hasn't helped everyone, but it's the big thing that helps be able tolerate the dizziness. I got to the point that leaving was hard, until I got this.

What are you looking for on a RF meter to alert you to wi-fi?

Does  .05 - .06 Gauss jumping & sometimes to 1 in the air is a valid wi-fi measurement?

Hi Kathy,

Depending on the sensitivity of the meter, it is usually not detectable
numerically unless close, around 75 ft at the farthest. At short
distance, you would see the numbers go up.

No. Gauss meters measure magnetic fields associated with power lines. 60 Hz.
WiFi is a microwave frequency, between 2.4 and 2.5 GIGA hertz.
You can't expect a low frequency meter to pick up high frequencies.

How long is your gauss meter staying elevated at 1 mG ?

The two ways to measure if the neighbor's wifi is on, is either with a
Canary Hotspotter, or an audio-sound meter, like the Acoustimeter, the
MW-1, or the Cornet ED-7. I believe the Esmog Spion and similar models
in Europe also have good audio, but Charles would know for sure.

Re: Question

I'll have to buy another meter.  Bought a Cornet emf meter for RF & LF.

It gives me .003 to .004 on our inside wall pointing at the neighbor's  house w wi-fi .

I'll have to try it again to let you know who long it stayed at 1.
