i am running a belkin 802.11G 2.5Ghz router with a 2.4ghz 802.11G linksys PCI Card

i just went and got me a new Phone for my room ( A Panasonic 5.8 Digital Gigarange) and i am guessig it is having a fallback to 2.4 ghz...

when ever i get a phone call my wireless is interfeired with.. now, i had a linksys Router well.. still have at my mothers house.. it was their version of the belkin router i have... and i have a 2.4 ghz phone there.. i changed the Channel and it worked fine..

i tryed chaning the channel on this one but it hasnt did me any justice.. it seems like it is getting better but no promises.. it never fails to fail when the effin phone rings :) Somone gimme a hand .. :) :o :o :o :o :o :o
Thanks From the Nub,

Deadline3905,

The phone really shoundn't have a fall back to to 2.4GHz unless they advertise it does. It seems to me like the phone has some out of band emitions that shouldn't be there. It could be faulty components or just faulty design. The only way to really check it is to look at it on a spectrum analyzer. I hate to say it but I would suggest getting a 900MHz phone instead. The other option is to get a more powerful AP and client adapter to blast over the interference.

Sorry I don't have better news,

Conn Clark

Are you using DSL or Cable for your internet service? If DSL, it may be troubleshot down to the line filters or the line from the cordless phone cradle and it's associated line. Another thing to look at is how close the cordless phone power plug/line is to your AP's power plug/line. The surge in power at the cradle may screw with your AP's power which would result in a dropped wireless connection when a call comes in.

if DSL, swap out the filters, and check your power layout either way.

let me know if any of this works.
