Hello there!

Does spending a lot of time in a Wi-Fi environment has any adverse effect on ICDs?

I have been considering installing a Wi-Fi devise in my home so that we all could access the internet freely from a single line. How about wireless speakers?

Would appreciate any help on the above issues.

No problem

I have a Wi Fi network here with no problem. In fact I've stood right next to a CB antenna when someone was transmitting. The newer pacemakers are shielded and filtered to prevent problems.

As I sit here

As I sit here my Wi Fi unit is at eye level about 12 inches from my left eye. I think that if there was a problem I would know about it by now.

Later,

Use WiFi at work. Use WiFi at home. Use WiFi when I travel. Never had a single problem.

I have read some posts on this forum where people did have a problem. But I've not had a single problem with using WiFI, my iPhone, or any wireless device.
