3� Cordless Phones
if the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to

the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:

Try moving cordless phones away from the router and your

wireless-enabled computers�

Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone

that operates on the 2�4GHz band (check the manufacturer’s

information)� if this fixes the problem, your phone may be interfering�

if your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on

the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network� For

example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your router to

channel 11� see your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions�

if necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz cordless phone�

2� Avoid Obstacles and Interference
Avoid placing your router near devices that may emit radio “noise,”

such as microwave ovens� Dense objects that can inhibit wireless

communication include:

refrigerators

Washers and/or dryers

Metal cabinets

large aquariums

Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows

if your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects

such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your computers

and router)�
