wireless and cordless phone-- interference.



My son has a wireless b/g ADSL modem (2wire). He also has a cordless phone.
Whenever he uses the phone the wireless does not work. Is there some way
around this, bar buying a new phone? I assume the phone is a 2.4GHz phone,
but have not had confirmation of this yet.


Another problem he has is that he is in an appartment building in which
there are lots of wireless modems. He has problems with his computer (
Linux Mandriva 2007.1 with ipw3945 wireless) suddenly attaching itself to
one of theother modems in the building. Is there some way to prevent this?
(Yes, his modem has a unique ESSID)

Ie he will find that his wireless connection has suddenly stopped working
adn when he checks iwconfig discovers it has associated with a neighbor's
modem.
