  My cameras were eating the 2.4GHz band

  Symptom

  Nest Hubs randomly dropping off WiFi and refusing to reconnect; an Apple TV on the same 2.4GHz IoT SSID stuttering while streaming from a local Plex server

  Cause

  UniFi cameras streaming 143 GB/day of video over 2.4GHz, pinning channel 1 at 95% airtime and starving every other client of transmit opportunities
