Are these units plugged into the same circuit?  I'm guessing the wireless
internet gear installed has a dirty power supply or a large amount of
vhf-band noise being pushed back down.

A lot of cheap wall-wart power supplies (or cheap Chinese 'project'
supplies) are crap.  This is getting surprisingly common - even the
cigarette lighter charger for my cellphone spews crap all over the VHF and
FM broadcast band.

I do wireless internet installs for a living, and you'd be surprised the
general lack of quality control is used on most gear.  I'm curious - what
gear was installed?
