microwave oven out of range of your access point.
Cordless Telephones
If you have an 802.11g or 802.11b radio in your access point, the radio
may experience interference from some cordless telephones. For
optimal performance, consider operating cordless telephones out of
range of your access points.
Other Access Points
Access points that are configured for the same frequency and that are
in the same radio coverage area may interfere with each other and
decrease throughput. You can reduce the chance of interference by
configuring access points at least five channels apart, such as channels
1, 6, and 11.
