Default Ethernet Router RFI

Hmmm, I have the same router, with no problems at all, and it is about 1
meter from my radios.... try winding the power cord together in one
bundle, and use it at 100 tx/rx with Cat5e or better cables. From my
router, the wan goes to a DSL box, and the lan is hooked up to a Gigabit
switch, and a 10/100 switch, all with no interference noticeable..

After several months of just not listening to my 2 meter base station, I
finally took time to find the source of the interference that held the
squelch open on the repeater channel I listen to most often. Turned out it
was my Dlink DI-604 router. I borrowed a Linksys NR-041 router from my
neighbor and it works a little better. I can now listen to the 145.390
repeater, not because the Linksys puts out no RFI, but only because it puts
it out in a different place (mostly in the 146.46-146.58 range). I will
probably invest in a newer router, probably wireless. Question I have is
does anyone have any experience with the new breed of wireless routers that
are reasonable clean in the RFI/2 meter spectrum? Thanks.
