so, do these interfere with wireless internet networks or not? Do these wireless speakers interfere with wireless internet networks?

I have these speakers set up right next to my wireless router and have had no problems with either.

I have no problem with my router(netgear) and many other wireless routers of my neighbors. I also work on my laptop in my living room with these speakers and have no problem with wireless mouse.

Belkin router D Link - USB adapter No Problems.However this head unit placed next to my cable modem produced packet loss(lost internet connection due to the frequency) which was verified by the cable company.Place the head unit away from modems or routers and problem solved.

What about with a wireless keyboard and mouse? (RF, not bluetooth - those awful bluetooth also use 2.4Ghz and get interference from everything)

I do get some interference, in the form of slower throughput, but separating the control box from the Wi-Fi-equipped computer helps significantly, as does forcing Wi-Fi onto channel 11.My base station is NOT near the speakers, but testing with them at least in the same room didn't show much improvement. In some cases they might "see" each other and pick non-busy channels. Different routers might behave differently, too.Bottom line - they're great speakers, but the Wi-Fi interference is a major flaw in something aimed at being PC speakers!

Unfortunately, they are not wireless. . .at least the pair I had were not wireless. And again, I really wasn't all that impressed with the sound quality. I really have heard better speakers - albeit mono, but with good quality sound.

If you can, using the A/C power cord is always preferable. I have tried many different types of wireless speakers and they all suffer from inconsistent sound with regard to signal quality. Even if the transmitter is close to your speakers, there are MANY things that will interfere with the signal. One of the worst offenders is a wifi router. Make sure your transmitter is as far away from it as possible. Try adjusting the frequency on your speakers and realize that, what works today my not work tomorrow.

Only thing I could see that would possibly interfere with doing that is the wireless sub. I would contact Polk and see if is possible that there may be interference. Other than that I don't see an issue.

These are just speakers , you need a receiver in order to use them. These are the kind you would use with a home theater system or other similar setup. The receiver is what would need the ability to be wireless. Hope that helps,David

They are not really wireless - there is one wireless (wireless only while connecting to the base unit) receiving unit that does have a wire that plugs into the wall. The wireless receiving unit is wired to the two rear speakers.

Definitely not wireless. They are great speakers. Have them on my patio. Only 3 visits from the local boys in blue telling me to turn it down!

Try turing speaker off. And check connections.Be careful not to let it take over your wireless device can take over your routed.ect

The speakers are hard wired. Internet communication can be wireless, provided you have a 10Mbs minimum speed.

I have four units and they do not make noise. It could be the surrounding area that is interfering, try moving the unit to another space that is open and not near wireless equipment.

I would say each set comes with a pair and it is "paired". So there is probably no interference. And then I found this review and confirmed that there should have no interference. So let's try it.http://www.practical-home-theater-guide.com/soundcast-wireless-system.html

these are not wireless speakers, they are external speakers that have to be wired into your stereo or an amplifier. If the device you hook it into has a wireless option, that would work but otherwise no. I use mine on the patio and hooked them up to a regular cd/radio/tape stereo and use my adapter to hook up either a computer, or cell phone, thru them. Each pot has about two feet of cord on them that has to be wired into a system of some kind

No they're not wireless .. There are 5 different small speakers two you put in front of your TV left and right two in the back and one comes with long wire which should be placed behind your seating area .. Hope i helped answer your question

No sure. Does a wireless system use Bluetooth or some other form of siginal. It has your typical wired inputs. I have a seperate wireless system and with a little tweaking I am sure I could use the speakers in a wireless fashion. Out of box it will not allow you to use wirelessly.

The speakers are not wireless. Each speaker comes with about 20 ft of cable if I remember correctly. The cables are thin, so they are easy to hide under a carpet.
