Title: static on mk11a system
Post by: mbwelter on November 10, 2006, 03:08:11 PM

No matter what I try I can't get rid of the audio static on this system.  I am currently on channel A.  It sounds like a series of clicks, about every 2 seconds.  I changed my 802.1.g network to channel 12 and that did not help.  Any suggestions ?

Try turning your Wireless network off, and see if you still have the pops. That way you'll know if it IS caused by the WAP.

Also if you have a 2.4 Ghz cordless phone. Try it unplugged also.

Thanks, the problem was the 2.4 telephone.  Does anyone know of a filter to stop the static ?

A 5.8 Ghz cordless phone... :)

Also, SEARCH the forum for related messages - "SOME" 5.8 Ghz phones use *BOTH* 2.4 Ghz and 5.8 Ghz. >:( IIRC, Panasonic was one brand...
