Device interference is the most likely cause of the wireless connection dropping or becoming slow. Interference can come from other wireless devices, microwave ovens, or physical barriers like walls and metal objects. Hidden SSID, Ethernet port flapping, and high ISP latency are not likely to cause this issue. Wireless interference from other devices can cause a drop in wireless connection speed and stability. In a small office environment, there may be several wireless devices competing for the same bandwidth, causing the issues described.
