LG Wireless Phone

Why does my wireless router disconnect when the phone rings?

Hi, I own a belkin G wireless router, when the phone rings and until it disconnects and the call has ended, the wifi does not work. I have it connected through the filter box and has its own ask as well? Thanks for the help.

1. Assuming you have DSL, do you have filters installed between all of your phones and fax machines and the wall jacks they are connected to?
2. It's because they operate on the same transmission wave length IE 2.4Ghz. It's basically cross interference. :) I can help you resolve this issue by going to http://www.crossloop.com/echobuzz
3. What I am not sure of is if your phone is wireless or not. I would see if your Internet goes out when your computer is plugged into a wired connection. If it still does that, then you know it is noise on your DSL line. If the wired connection is good when the phone rings, that means your wireless phone is operating at the same frequency as your wireless router. Then you have these 2 options: Go into your router's interface and change the wireless channel to 1, 6, or 11. The reason why you use these 3 channels is that each channel has a 3 channel overlap in both directions. In order to get the most non overlapping channels, 1, 6, and 11 must be used. If you are still getting problems, you might want to look into powerline networking instead of wireless. I really don't understand why Powerline isn't the preferred alternative to an ethernet cable into a router when ethernet isn't an option. This video will explain how it works. Basically you have one powerline adapter that plugs into the wall near your router. A network cable connects that powerline adapter to your router. A second powerline adapter is used to connect near your computer. Again, a network cable plugs into the adapter into the network jack in your computer. It then uses your electircal wall sockets to transmit data. You might be thinking how this doesn't cause interference with your electricity. It's pretty simple. Electricity has a frequency of 60 hertz. Ethernet uses over 100 million hertz. It's the same reason why radio stations can use the same air to radiate their signals as other radio stations.
