You're using a cordless phone? The phone is interfering with the router. Connect to the router and try changing channels (http://192.168.1.1/Wireless_Basic.asp the 3rd item). Channels 1, 6 and 11 are the ends and middle of the range, so use the one farthest from the current one.



Or you have a DSL internet connection? Make sure that everything plugged into a phone jack - EXCEPT the modem - has a filter on it.

Unfortunately, your phone operates in the 2.4GHz radio frequency range - the exact same frequencies that wireless Ethernet uses.



The best solution is to replace your phone with one that operates in a different frequency range, e.g. 5.8GHz.
