Also customers installing range extenders aka "boosters" which often make

If this is a subdivision/apartment/townhome not rural, is the cable company 
rolling out new WiFi modem/routers or is there a new fiber company in the area?

I would look at local interference. It's not unusual for there to be 6 or more
