I'd ask for some proof (nicely). If needed, you can get some spectrum
analysis software to see what's actually happening in the RF space in
their labs. Ultimately I'd leave it up to the occupants of the building
to decide whether they want WiFi or not (and get the decision in writing).

Has anyone had to deal with researchers claiming that 802.11 RF causes
interference with their laboratory experiments and apparatus? We're getting
rumblings out of our Physics department - they are trying to prevent APs from
getting installed in their area because of what they say are highly sensitive
devices that will be adversely affected.
My personal opinion is....well, I'll withhold that for now. Anyone gone
through this? Thanks in advance!
