Well if your phone wireless freq. is 2.4Ghz it's going to basically fight over the air space. Most wireless signals run on 2.4ghz. Only one that doesn't is an 'A' network.  So the best solution for you IMO is to just get a new Core-less phone that runs on the 5.8ghz freq. You win because the 5.8 phones are the best ones, and they are not to expense.... As you getting a router on the freq.

I can only suggest that you buy a better router.  \n\nNow by wireless do you mean there is no router in your house and it comes from a different source?  If so get a better wireless router.  \n\nIf you have one in your house and it receives the signal for you then try getting closer to your router.  If this does not work your router may need to be replaced.\n\n\nAre you talking about a cell phone?  If so try getting a cell phone signal booster.  Try the link below to get an idea of what they do. \n\nIf you need more help email me and I can help you.\n\ngood luck.

Sometimes its just the modem that was bad. I even had problems with two of my computers with dial up. Compaq. computers but I called them and they knew of the problem and replaced it free of charge. Dial up modems are super cheap right now. Like 14.99 on ebay and cheap in stores too. Maybe pick up a new one and try it out. Make sure its a 56 K. Ver 2 modem. Cheers!\n\nAnd dont leave the interent connected all night with dial up turn it off when your not home. It could make it burn up. \n\nCan you get DSL? Sometimes when you can only get dial up you might be able to get DSL! CHeck with www.sbc.yahoo.com

mine works fine, it connects me to the internet at a much faster speed than dial up and without the extra expense of a landline.

Can be numerous problems, but probably a neighbor’s cordless phone is interfering with your wireless reception. Try repositioning your access point.  Just like any transmitter, it is susceptible to electron noise.  \n\nScottsdale, Arizona Computer Repair & USA Phone support\nhttp://www.AFFIRM-COMPUTER-REPAIR.NET\nAffirmative Computer Services \n*Quality* Services

You need to consider sources of interference as well. If you have to change the channel of the router then there is most likely a device using the same or neighboring channel that is interfering with the function of your wireless. The most common offender is a 2.4GHz cordless phone. It wouldn't even have to be your phone, if you've got a neighbor that has one it can interfere as well. \nIt sounds like your PC that can't connect to the wireless is either not getting an IP address for your router or it is getting the wrong address. Click start and run and type cmd and hit enter. Then type ipconfig /all and hit enter. This will show you what the IP address of your computer is once it is connected to the wireless. If it never connects at all then you likely have a configuration problem on your wireless profile. If you're using an encryption key make sure the key is correct and that the SSID you are using is also correct. If these check out fine then try removing the profile completely and re-adding it. I've seen windows screw up a profile and prevent it from connecting many time.

I use Sony Ericsson T300 (which has a built-in modem) via a cheap USB Irda dongle on my computer. Just make sure you have a working GPRS connection with your cellular provider (you can WAP browse in your cell phone). I setup a dial-up connection on my computer with a number from my cellular provider (#99**5) - the #99** part I think is standard while 5 is actually the CID # for GPRS setting on my T300 which I got from my provider) and with the T300 connected via Irda I can get online. I also have to configure Internet Explorer use a proxy server (an ip address on the GPRS setting on the phone) so I can browse the web. It's very slow (the Irda connection between my computer and my T300 is only 9.6bps) but it gets you there.

You should have perfect connectivity. Does your computer know you have a dsl modem? Call Verizon - they should help you on this.

my friend...\n\nmay i know what is the scenario... you are using at the moment....\nare you having a wireless router or an access point....\n\nif the distance between your wireless router or an access point and your wireless adapter card... is more than 100 to 150 metres...then i would suggest to buy another access point...... to solve the problem..\n\nthere are some config.. to be done in an access point....\n\nconfig., the access point seetings to repeater mode and provide in the ssid of your old access point or router....\n\nit will definitely solve the problem...\n\n-vsh vkr

Has there been a cordless phone brought into the household, if so then try moving the cordless phone base or the router to cut down the interference.  If there hasn't been a new cordless phone brought into the house then maybe one of the neighbors has a new cordless phone or wireless network.  Then try going into the router config and try changing the channel to find one with less interference.

If you're using a wireless router, there are factors that may cause connection problems.  Distance, interference (other wireless devices like cordless phones, appliances like speakers with subwoofers or unsheiled speakers), or even firewalls.  Sometimes you may need to change channels on your router to get a more stable conection.  Also make sure your router is placed as high up as possible in an open area (not under desks, or near high voltage areas).\n\nIf you're using a wird router, or if your computers are wired to the router, try checking for firewalls.  You may alos be too far, and your ethernet cable too long.  You can try adjusting the speed of your network card to half (but don't do this without tech help, unless you know what you're doing!), though this would be one of the last things I'd do.\n\nYou can also try adjusting the MTU settings on the router (actually lowering it works - 1500 for cable broadband, 1300 for dsl broadband)).

What all the others have said, plus, wireless broadband costs your y-fronts and socks. The cost was so much and service touted as unreliable that I haven't bothered.\nNow, what you can do is get a bluetooth enabled cell phone and bluetooth adapter that plugs into the usb port on your computer.\nWith that arrangement, the cell becomes your modem, and the computer dials through the phone to any dial up service, much cheaper, just not a fast. \nI have a mate that is pushing me in that direction. i have the adapter, now all I have to do is get busy and get the new cellie to handle it.

If you have DSL you CANNOT use cable modem. TAKE THAT BACK. Keep your wireless-G. You can hook up WIFI in your house. Again DSL uses telephone lines and cable modem uses TV coaxle.

There is no best one, however, your problems may be related to how you've set it up.\n\nThings to do:\n\nTurn off SSID broadcasting\nEnable MAC address filtering\nTurn on WEP or WPA encryption\nMake sure you're on a clear channel\n\nLastly, other devices, such as some cordless phones (those running on the 2.4ghz frequency) etc, can interfere with your wireless router.\n\nIf you've done all those things, and you still have problems, there may be issue's with that particular router, i.e., maybe it's a lemon.

(1) Power cycle the DSL modem -- off/on  (2) Does the phone work? If yes, the copper is OK.  If no, you have a copper problem.  (3) Do you get the DSL modem in SYNC?  If yes, you have a PPPoE problem -- check the username/password.  If no, then ask for a new modem.  \n\nSee page 5-46 in the DSL TROUBLESHOOTING section on the link below.

run a splicer from the box outside to the phone router. If they are on the same line, the signal gets weakened.We had the same problem and giving them each thier own dedicated line fixed the issue

The fact you're using a Mac shouldn't affect your wireless.  I suspect the problem is you're missing a bit of equipment.  Post some more info to clarify things - like exactly what bits of equipment you have.\n\nTelewest supply a cable modem, and only 1 device can be directly connected through this at any one time.  From your description it sounds like you might have their wireless self install kit - which either plugs into a cable modem or a TV set top box.  The firmware on this has been crippled so again only 1 computer at a time can connect\n\nWhat you need is a cable router - if you're sticking with Netgear something like the WGR614 for an all in one wireless solutions or and RP614 and make use of your existing wireless access point (if it's not the crippled one I've talked about above).\n\nThis will allow you to connect multiple PCs or Macs either via cables or wireless.\n\nIf you do get something like this you need to follow a specific sequence for swapping it in.  Turn off the cable modem, connect the router, turn on the modem, then turn on the modem.  It will then learn the MAC (Media Access Control - nothing to do with Apple Macs - think of it like the car registration of your network card) address of the router.  You'll need to configure the wireless to allow you to connect to the new router, so you'll need to connect by an ethernet cable initially to set up the security etc.\n\nAs an aside if you are using a STB for connection rather than a standalone cable modem you're connection will not go faster than 1Mb so if you're on a higher package it's worth contacting Telewest to get them to put in a dedicated modem.
