Microwaves degrade everyone's 2.4 GHz ISM band radios. Wi-Fi occupies the ISM band because it's a garbage band that was already wrecked by this type of equipment. There isn't a solution to this; the safe leakage from a microwave oven is millions of times more powerful than wifi field strength. 5 or 6GHz band avoids the problem.

There is a solution. Spread-spectrum methods for digging out signals from deep in the noise floor. It's just maths, but the amount of noise you can reject that way is really nuts.
