RF Interference with network

OK anyone who has 2.4GHz phones knows they tend to knock the wireless cards
offline right? My question to the masses is this:

Do the newer 5GHz phones have the same effect or are they a good alternative
to the 2.4GHz phones?

Thanks in advance!

The 5Ghz phones do not affect the 802.11b and 802.11g wireless networks
which operate on 2.4Ghz.

The MAY interfere with the 802.11a wireless networks which operate on 5Ghz.

I've found 900mhz cordless phones to coexist very well with a/b/g wireless
networks.

I have a 2.4ghz Uniden phone and a D-Link DI624 router and D-Link cards for
all computers on my network, and I have found that it's the PHONE that
accepts the interference, but the phone doesn't seem to cause any problems
with my network. In fact, my network causes problems with my phone instead
of the phone causing network problems.
The closer I get to the router the louder the static is on the phone.

Am I the only one experiencing this?

No, it's a common problem.

Tell the phone to switch channels. There should be a button on the phone to
make it change channels.

That wouldn't work for me due to the fact that I use D-Link "Super G" mode
which uses as I understand it channel bonding using ALL available channels.
Using super G mode my router is locked to channel 6, but in fact uses all
channels. If I turn off the super G I can choose any channel but loose out
on the performance side.
This is something I have learned to live with, with the phone interference,
by not getting to close to my wireless router.
I just posted to let people know that sometimes the phone takes the
interference and NOT the wireless network. My phone has NEVER interrupted my
wireless network.
Maybe this is because I use a pure D-Link wireless environment, but I don't
know this for a fact.
