Question by LawzoL: What can jam or interfere with a 5.8ghz wireless cctv camera?
Tested my new one last night, and all of a sudden, massive interference caused it to lose signal after around 20 minutes.
Could someone with ‘the know how’ purposely jam the camera?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Answer by JoelKatz
Someone could definitely purposely jam a 5.8GHz wireless camera, though 5.8GHz jammers are not as widely available as 900MHz and 2.4GHz jammers are. It can also be caused by other devices in the 5.8GHz spectrum. Changing the channel might help.

There are 5.8Ghz cordless phones, those could interfere if they are close enough. Any other wireless device running on the 5.8Ghz band can cause the same interference. Usually there is less interference in that band, only because there are less devices using it, but eventually it will become as crowded as the 2.4Ghz band.
Anyone with “know how” can get a 5.8Ghz signal source, and jam that band, though jamming “all of it” would be difficult due to the large amount of radio spectrum allocated to the 5.8Ghz shared band.
