Please help ME i am sooooo F***ing pissed off at my wireles router. All of the sudden, any time some one uses are cordless phone (2.4gz) it's deciding to kill my connection, i drop from 11mbps to 1mbps and lose all contact until the phone is hung up. I've had my router for over a year and it hasn't done this since recently. I am very aggravated. I have a 614+ Dling 8.11b wireless router. Please help!
