Having moved my home assistant from the middle of my house to a garden shed/office, check your WiFi network is not on channel 1. As that will most likely be the same part of the spectrum as your ZigBee network, if you have your ZigBee on channel 11.
On another note. A zigbee network is a mesh network set up at pairing. Moving your host around will not re-generate the routes in the network and make your devices drop.
Pair your devices (and hub) in there position they will be in when installed.
I don't know if that's the (entire) story -- the mesh is supposed to occasionally reroute based on the link quality of the individual nodes and the repeaters they can see.
