Plasma TV Interfering with Wifi

Hi All

Had to disconnect home entertainment setup for a new carpet to go in a while ago and since I've put everything back together again I'm getting occasional interference on my wifi whenever the TV is on. It's quite an old (15yrs) Panasonic Plasma.  With TV off I get a solid 30MBps on Speedtest (ios), with TV on it's all over the place, dropping as low as 2-3MBps.  I've tried resetting the Hub (with the TV on so the interference will be present) and it seems to sort itself out for a few days but then the problem comes back.  Anyone seen this kind of thing before??

Plasma screens have been known to cause interference with other devices. How close is your router to the TV? Moving it away and out of a direct line of sight may help. Those old Panasonics are great btw, my mum has got one of similar vintage which is still going strong.
