Weak WiFi Signal

Recently I had a problem seeing my Access Point which I have been using
for ages.

Neighbouring APs were showing up but my own device in the next room was
not visible.

I changed the channel from 11 trying 7 and 4 and settled on 4 which is
now working fine.

I was under the impression that channel conflicts could cause data
transfer problems and therefore affect speed but I didn't think the
device would not show up.

Anyone else had similar.

Certainly have. Sadly it looks like it's only going to get worse.
