I ran into this a few weeks ago with a USB 3.0 thumb drive interrupting my Wi-Fi network communication on my PC.

I fixed this by putting the USB 3.0 thumb drive through the washing machine in my pants pocket. After being washed, the thumb drive no longer works, but my wi-fi is working great now, thanks to the washing machine. Problem gone.

This is extremely wasteful.

Given current data in the area of climate change (I say this as a California resident who has seen firsthand the effects of long term drought in the area), we need to consciously conserve water. Reservoirs are drying up, fires are out of control, etc. Please don’t contribute to the problem. Use a hammer.

I found a similar fix, but instead put my laptop in the wash

USB now works great!

I'd better put my wifi router in my washing machine to fix both.

Is your USB hitting 24fps?

[fphhotchips]

No, but for a few minutes it hit 1000rpm
