[SOLVED] Will my cordless phone interfere with my WiFi Router?

[Fuzzy Monkey]

I recently got a new WiFi router to replace the old and slow one. It is getting a lot lower of a speed that the company said. Is this because i have a cordless phone right beside it, or could their be other possible reasons why this is happening?

It shouldn't do anything while you are not talking, but if operates at 2.4 ghz, it may do some interference.

What router do you have, and what speed are you getting? How are you measuring that speed? What speed do you pay for from your ISP? How far away is the device from the router?

As @TJ Hooker said, we need a lot more info. Your performance may be completely normal. The advertising numbers that are used for WIFI "performance" are completely fictitious. So not getting performance like the box says "AC1900" thinking you will get gigabit performance is not abnormal.
