We have discovered that the 5 Ghz wifi radio band prevents my wife from sleeping properly. My wife had a sudden onset of disturbed sleep every night. We gave careful thought to what may have changed in our household and realized we had installed Verizon FIOS service. Verizon provided us with a device which provides two wifi bands, 2.5 Ghz ad 5 Ghz. When we turned off the wifi transmissions, my wife's sleep immediately returned to normal. Without telling my wife, I turned the two wifi bands back on, one at a time. the 2.5 Ghz band did not seem to disturb her sleep. A few nights later, when I turned the 5Ghz band back on, her sleep disruption immediately returned. Turning the band off again relived her problems. So it is clear the the 5 Ghz microwave radiation has profoundly negative effects on her. This makes me suspect that all of the microwave radiation we are subjected two can be biologically active. Even if the effects are sub clinical, there is no way to know what long term harms will result from uncontrolled exposure to microwaves, much of which is at alarmingly high intensities.
