@Paddles Unless your neighbour has your wifi password they cannot just hack into your wifi, they also cannot affect your TV service.

What makes you think this is happening?

Nothing to do with the Police so no wonder they haven't been able to help you.

I know plenty of people that could do exactly that 😏

Well, genuine 'hacking' would be, but the chances of this being what's actually happening is negligible.
