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

Hope this helps! 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. they will interfere with one another, being on the same frequency. You cordless phone should be 5.4 gHz 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 thats what I said.
