CAFE by GE for those who are wondering.

We are renovating our house including all new appliances. I have told my partner to make sure we get non smart appliances. This is why.

Yes I can setup a VLAN for it to be on but that's not the point.

That could work if you amped the waves up and trapped them in a confined, isolated space, no?

    Maybe if you could amp up the wattage by a 1000 fold, sure

    We're not trying to be efficient, we are trying to be innovative!

    I'm not sure if that's possible, but if, not in this size. You would probably need an oven in the size of an entire truck maybe? It probably needs lot of energy for both, isolating and transforming/amping the signal. At that point the power going in to transform the signal could be used more efficiently otherwise to achieve the same goal without Wi-fi (as those small microwaves proves it).
