wireless problem "Dave" <Dave[ at ]mediacom.net> 12/30/2008 5:19:10 PM I have AT&T DSL.My Motorola modem is connected to a Netgear router that also has wireless built in. I have 2 Dell desktops hooked to the router using Ethernet cables and a laptop PC that has wireless access. My problem is that when my home phone rings and is answered it drops the internet connection on the laptop PC and sometimes the internet will automatically come right back up and at other times I will have to re-boot the internet up. I do not have a problem with the desktop PC's. At&t put a whole house filter on the out side phone box that is on the house and there is still a problem. Do any of you have a suggestion as to how I can't get this fixed? Thank you very much for your help.

Re: wireless problem "CBoom" <someone[ at ]microsoft.com> 12/30/2008 5:55:45 PM Hmmm this is very strange... can you try connecting a different telephone? disconnect all telephones and leave only one... if you have a wireless telephone try a simple telephone vise vesus there are also filters that you put on the cable that leads to the telephone itself.. do you have those? please post back with results of the above...

Re: wireless problem "rak" <rakess[ at ]charter.net> 12/30/2008 8:06:14 PM Assuming your phone is wireless, it is probably also 2.4ghz -- same as your network. Easy solution is to change the phone out to one that is 5.8 or 6.0ghz. Widely available. "Dave" <Dave[ at ]mediacom.net> wrote in message news:iKs6l.11118$yr3.10192[ at ]nlpi068.nbdc.sbc.com...
