Folks,
Have any of you experienced interference on 145.800 (ISS freq) from your wireless router? I know it is my Netgear wireless router as the interference goes away when I turn the router off.
If you have a fix please let me know.

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem. I switched to a Draytek / Vigor router and had no further problems.

Funny you mention this, I had a Wired hub that generated a very strong birdie on 145800. I used to pull the plug on it to work 145800 or there abouts. I tried several different hubs from different manufactures all had the same problem. I finally switched to a 2.4 gig hybrid system and my birdie problems were over. I now use a Linksys 2.4 gig 54mbps hybrid and have no problems, even while receiving mode S...

Hi Folks, Here are some tips and tricks....
I have had a couple of routers/switches/hubs cause/have issues. If it is a wireless unit, shut off the wireless only and see if that is the issue. Power them from a regulated power supply rather than a wall wart to see if that is an issue.
I have seen some people using cheap network wires. I use only CAT5e or CAT6 cables and they seem to be less prone to EMI/RFI/etc.
Some other tricks: Do you have the latest firmware for the routers? I have also used the DD-WRT software on a couple of routers. It has improved them dramatically. Of course it also voids any warranty!!

I have 4 wrt54gs going here, no issues, but all are powered off the 12v psu that I use for my radios, no wall warts. Also power the cable tv amp, and wifi amp from the same 12v unit.

I've had trouble with a Linksys WRT54GS in the past throwing a birdie near 144.220. I replaced it with a Netgear, no noise in the ham bands that I can find now, at all.
