2.4 Mgz Wireless Interference

Problems with a wireless system: traveling static type bars or black bars moving up the screen are an indication of interference problems. A router has a big impact on the wireless camera operation, to the point of making some of them blank out from interference. I had to shut down the wireless router in order to use wireless cameras. (In like fashion, using the 2.4 mgz cordless phone would blank out two of the cameras as well.)

On the other hand, I have used a 2.4Mgz cordless phone while sitting at and using the wireless laptop, with no signal change. In addition, my home is controlled by X-10 devices, and so far no problems of any kind.

Wireless 2.4 mgz cameras have had no impact on the lan system. The biggest problem seems to be keeping the cameras operational, although I have a suspicion that some wireless LAN signal drop outs were caused by interference from the cameras.

This means you should be prudent in your use of products and their locations as each of the devices are competing for space in the same 2.4 mgz frequency channels. If you are just starting out it would be beneficial to have some of your devices in the new 5.8 band.
