I live in a bungalow and use a spare bedroom as my office.
My router is in there with a windows laptop, a 2014 mini Mac and monitor.
I have had issues with internet cutting out intermittently for the last 2 years.
I have just found out that my next door neighbour is using his computer directly behind my wall.
Can the 2 routers cause interference with each other?

ADSL? FTTC? FTTP?
Ethernet? Wireless?
What about the neighbour?
What you suggest is a likely scenario if you are both running wireless. Or if the neighbour is wireless and you are ADSL or FTTC and not wired and filtered correctly.

FTTC, Ethernet to the computers and wireless to the smart tv (2)

FTTC, Ethernet to the computers and wireless to the smart tv (2)
is the internet cutting out to the two computers ?
if so, how is the router connected to the phone socket ?

Apologies,I have been away for a few weeks.
The internet cuts out to both pc, and the router goes into a new open reach phone socket. my phone goes into router.
I believe FTTC and my router is from sky.
The apps on tv`s plays up a lot ,with no internet outage

Plug the router into the test point behind the faceplate of the master socket, if the service still drops out then phone your ISP because you've ruled out everything that you are responsible for at that point.

I spent ages trying to get our Sony 55 TV to work via wifi. The Freeserve aerial was fine. Faced with choice of a 12m ethernet cable through the house from the router I bought a TPLink mains connector. Worked at once, no bother for last three years, FTTC at first, FTTP past year. Wifi is great when it works, but this old dinosaur has neither the patience nor knowhow to fiddle with it.

additional to jpm's comment, still use a microfilter do this........ see if drops connection. then try a spare, microfilter.
greysurfer225 do you know what type of master socket you have? has it one or two sockets?

Why? The microfilter should be straight through for FTTC.

Because microfilters can fail and the microfilter itself could be causing the problem.
