I have no idea, but it does work better with the door open and just the screen door in between. Anti wifi glass I guess. I take the console out on the deck anyway, problem solved.

Then it probably coated. Its not so much anti-wifi as it is that there are certain metal bonds that can be used that are intended to keep heat in and other things out, but will have properties that end up interfering with transmission in the long wavelength ranges where wifi lives. Newer panels tend to be better made to avoid this problem.

Makes sense. My whole house seems anti wifi :/ I couldn't get the wiiU to stay connected to the router 1 floor down (and 20 meters sideways) and had to use my laptop as a wifi hotspot to bridge the signal. Later I moved the router to the loft above the living room, stealing a cable outlet there, which works better for the living room. But now I have sucky internet on the ground floor where my game room is. Takes forever to download updates there. It's mainly a wooden house, concrete/stone ground floor, standard drywall, open floor plan. I don't get why wifi sucks so much.
