The advent of advanced theft techniques has raised concerns regarding the reliability of traditional security systems, including surveillance cameras and burglar alarms. Thieves are now utilizing tactics to interfere with Wi-Fi signals, which can diminish the effectiveness of these protective measures. Police advise that residents consider implementing additional security strategies to prevent victimization by thieves.
Most current homes are reliant on Wi-Fi signals for the effective functioning of security system burglar alarms and surveillance equipment, which includes doorbell cameras.
Law enforcement suggests that residents opt for wired connections instead of Wi-Fi for their surveillance systems. They recommend contacting network providers or electricians to connect the burglar alarm system to the router using cables. This change removes the requirement for Wi-Fi, effectively preventing the operation of Wi-Fi jammers.
The FCC reminds the general public that in cases of home Wi-Fi interruptions, it is advisable to contact the service provider as soon as possible. This will clarify whether the disruption is due to a device failure or if it is being caused by someone using a signal jammers to interfere with the signal.
