Tons of things do, old cordless, legacy proprietary wireless
mice/keyboard/remote controls, ir-replacements, random bits of
pseudo-ethernet devices (sonos audio system comes to mind), bluetooth,
and most anything else "wireless" defacto runs in 2.4ghz, including
99.9% of wireless computers blasting out torrents (literally) of
packetized and attuned rf.
I won't reiterate a plethora of wireless bits, but 2.4 bites for lack of
total non-overlapping channels, it's more or less the cesspool every
device defaults to, good, bad, or ugly.
I did read somewhere that supposed there was a 3.6ghz spectrum released
for general consumption to give more network band, and there's always
5ghz, which is preferred with 802.11a, or 802.11n that can use either band.

It's unfortunate that someone deliberately comes up with something like
this that adds a lot of junk to a band that's already full of sources of
interference. Then there's that 2.4 ghz source you have in your kitchen
or office breakroom. I get my internet
connection wirelessly via the library across the street. My connection
dies whenever I use the microwave. While I'm waiting on my burrito to
cook, I can scan for available networks but won't find any.
Besides cordless phones, what sources of interference are there to
802.11n networks?
