LG UltraFine 5K Display, Apple’s external monitor solution, can become unusable when near a router

<p>Apple discontinued its Thunderbolt Display last summer (https://9to5mac.com/2016/06/23/apple-discontinues-thunderbolt-display/) after five years on the market, and now Apple recommends the <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2016/12/31/review-lg-ultrafine-5k-display-macbook-pro-video/" target="_blank">LG UltraFine 5K Display[/url] ($974 through March 31 (https://9to5mac.com/2016/12/20/apple-usb-c-discount-extended/), regular $1299.99) for new MacBook Pro customers. While the industrial design doesn’t match Apple’s hardware, the UltraFine 5K screen is Retina resolution like 5K iMacs and connects using the new Thunderbolt 3 I/O.</p>
<p>LG UltraFine 5K Display has a critical usability issue, however, that doesn’t affect other external monitors: the hardware can become unusable when located within 2 meters of a router.</p>
