5GHz wifi is a lot more stable. Mine used to disconnect with microwave running. Also your hub might have leaky cables. I had an issue like this with bad hdmi ca

  Microwave ovens and wifi use the same frequency range for the same reason: 2.4 GHz is available as unlicensed spectrum. In theory someone could build a 5 GHz microwave oven, but it wouldn't be cost-effective for a consumer appliance. I once heard something about that frequency working better with water molecules, but after looking it up I think it's a myth.

    A 5 GHz microwave would be more efficient but you don't necessarily want more efficient for cooking - that would just heat the outside of the food fastest. Commercial microwaves apparently run somewhere in the 900 MHz band. There are some neat graphs here: http://www1.lsbu.ac.uk/water/microwave_water.html http://www1.lsbu.ac.uk/water/microwave_water.html
