Depends on whether you can adjust the Tx level but then you run into FCC level stuff that most people avoid (since boosting it is a huge issue with interference)
I'm in the UK, not sure if they have their own british version of the FCC or just follow their rules but it might be different. The router/AP is a tp link Archer C6, which I use as it is performant enough to do VR streaming w/o stutters or high latency.
This is for the A7 but may show you how to turn off wifi on yours if the UI is the same

Thanks. I do unfortunately need wifi to do wireless VR streaming... I guess I need to find a way to tune it to interfere the least, but this is a whole alien world to me.
Looks like that model allows you to go down to 50% (Options are Low/50, medium/75 and full)
But looks like your router might be supported by openwrt, if you can get that working you can set the power as low as you want
