computer GEEK required
 
right i have one phone socket,its down stairs
i want internet access upstairs, i have wifi but due to " interferance" its quite a sh1te connection

so geeky people ( im looking at you SK TSM SAXO)
what is the cheapest way to achieve this, is it possible to boost wifi in my room without running wiring, also is it possible to have a second phone upstairs too again without a phone socket, bt are asking stupid money to fit one

over to you sad people :)

run a cable upstairs i charge less than bt, but you need the tool's cable and phone socket point.

You could use HomePlugs such as these Solwise 85Mbps Adaptors (Twin Pack).

You could get a wireless repeater between your room and the router, boosting the signal.

Is the interference enough to stop you buying a cordless phone with two handsets, and keeping one upstairs? You'll need to take it downstairs every now and then to swap it with the one sitting in the charging cradle but not really a big deal is it?

Have you tried changing the channels rather than leaving it on auto?

Hmm Tigersaw beat me to it. Many 'interference' issues can be resolved changing the wi-fi channel on your router.
