why wouldnt i want to get a phone with the same ghz as my wireless internet?

Question

does my wireless have ghz? in another question someone said make sure you do get a phone with the same ghz as your wireless why i might sound really stupid but i dont get it can someone explain

Answer 1

I bought a wireless router that turned out to be the same ghz as my wireless house phone. There are times when I'm on the phone and sitting near the computer the wireless signeal for my computer gets knocked out. However, I've found that by just changing the channel on my house phone allows the two to work together no matter how close I'm sitting to the computer.

So to answer your question... the same ghz can interfere with your wireless router UNLESS you have the ability to change channels on the phone and then find one that allows the two to work together.

Answer 2

The wireless routers in use today operate in the 2.4 GHz band. Thus, the advice is _not_ to buy a cordless phone setup (we're not talking cellular: they operate on frequencies other than 2.4 GHz) that operates on the 2.4 GHz band.

Otherwise, chances are your phone can interfere with your wireless internet connection, and vice versa. You could try switching channels on your router (there are only three of them to choose from in the US) or your cordless phone to determine a config where they can operate over the same frequency w/o running into each other, but that's a hit-or-miss proposition.

Best bet is to get a cordless phone set that operates at 5.8 GHz. In that case, there's no chance your cordless phone will interfere w/ your wireless router, and vice versa. In fact, that's the setup I have at home.

Answer 3

possible prob's being in same band but all these devices work on spread spectrum technology and most like won't interfere. If the router sees some interference just try another channel

Answer 4

GHz refer to Giga Hertz. Simply put, it refer to the frequency band that your phone/PC card use to transit and receive signals to make voice/data calls.

Presently, there are four licensed frequency bands used around the world:

(a) 850MHz (CDMA)
(b) 900Mhz (GSM)
(c) 1800MHz or 1.8GHz (GSM), and
(d) 1900MHz or 1.9GHz (CDMA)

Normally, the wireless phones operate either in single-band or dual-band (a+c or b+d). Nowadays, single band phones are rare. They tend to be older phones or entry-level phones.

So, all you need to do is this: Call the Hotline of your phone company or the internet provider. (which you pay your monthly subscription) They should be able to tell you which frequencies are being used, and whether the desired products operate in those frequency bands.

Hope this helps!

Answer 5

they will interfere with one another, being on the same frequency. You cordless phone should be 5.4 gHz

Answer 6

thats what I said.
