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 your Router and your
wireless-enabled computers�
• Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that
operates on the 2�4GHz band (check 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 or 5GHz
cordless phone�

4 Choose the "Quietest" Channel for your Wireless Network
In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment
buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that
can conflict with yours�
Use the Site Survey capabilities found in the Wireless Utility of your wireless
adapter to locate any other wireless networks that are available (see your
wireless adapter's user manual), and move your Router and computers to a
channel as far away from other networks as possible�
• Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to
find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring
cordless phones or other wireless devices�
• For Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey
and wireless channel information included with your wireless network
card� See your network card's user guide for more information�
These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area
with your Router� Should you need to cover an even wider area, we suggest
the Belkin Wireless Range Extender/Access Point�
