will the 2.4 frequency interfere with my wireless network?

Sorry Bruce I am unable to answer your question...I returned this purchase almost as soon as I took it out of the box.....

I am using the speakers outside, but have a wireless connection in the same room as the Sabrent sender and have not experienced any problems.

no...the 2.4Ghz (or 900Mhz) is the same frequency that home wireless telephone systems operate. Neither should interfere with your wireless LAN network. There are also 3 channel settings on the Sabrent transmitter that allow you to choose the clearest reception. My Sabrent system works perfectly...

I have never had any interference issue. I had my sons birthday party and had the Sabrent base inside (the two speakers outside in the backyard with batteries and were within 15 to 30ft from the base) my house about 20ft away from my wireless router (using Comcast wireless router) which was playing music from my tablet (using Spotify), had my wife's phone as well as mine connected, a PS3 and some of my nephews iPhones connected. All of these devices were connected at the same time and didn't have any noticeable interference issues for the 4-5 hours that it was in use.

I've never had a problem with hearing my player on those frequencies but usually keep it on one which works fine. I've had my Transmitter for at least 3 or 4 years and no problem with interference.

That signifies the frequency of the wireless. If you are using more than one wireless at the same time at the same location they need to be different frequencies. If you visit the Samson website, you can find out exactly what frequency each one is at. Generally, unless you are using two or more at once, it shouldn't make much difference to you. However, due to interference from DTV and other RF (radio frequency) sources in your area--one might work far better than another. Determining interference in advance is complex and would take a review of FCC data bases along with a bit of wizardry. The best approach (the one I took), is to buy it and see if it works in your area. To test, turn on the reciever and turn up the volume--listen on headphones for any interference...then turn on the transmitter and see if you hear any problems. If all is clear, you are good to go. If you hear intermittent hisses and fps, return the unit and order a different channel.

Hello Molly, No, It's a wireless router. The 5 GHz band has a shorter range compared to a 2.4 GHz band because in radio frequencies, the higher the frequency the shorter its range. In other words, if you are using a lower frequency like the 2.4 GHz, the distance it will cover will be greater than the 5 GHz band. If you want to "extend" and\or increase weak signal within an area, than you will need to invest in a wireless range extender. I hope I was able to understand your question?

Use channels 1, 6, or 12 to avoid overlap on the wireless-G 2.4 Ghz range. Most devices still don't utilize the wireless-a 5 GHz range. I am a network engineer BTW.

I don't believe so. I've had various problems with this 5 mhz thing. I have to use that on my wifi at home to get fast speeds, but then some of my handheld devices won't pick up the 5 mhz network. So the 2.4 on this is to my advantage. Anyway, I don't think it has that option.

It depends on how far is your router from the back rooms. Also, wireless networks are also susceptible to obstructions that may lead to low signal. Often, the signal gets reflected, refracted or absorbed by the obstruction. Here are some tips: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=8131

I have my wireless for a long time. I have had no problems with it. However if transmitter and receiver are not close, I would have problems as other are discussing. When I move them closer together it takes care of the problem. I hope this helps.

Based on the internal settings, I see it only supports single band (2.4 Ghz)

No, all the SP400 are on 2.4Ghz, however you could use an SP400 and SP800 in the same room at the same time without interference. For further assistance, please email support@satechi.com.Thank you,Satechi Technical Support

Mine is located 3 rooms away on the other side of the house and it seems to be working OK. As the Wireless G/N only works in the 2.4ghz range, you might want to check for other interference sources - primarily cordless phones & microwaves that work on the same frequency. Also you might want to check to make sure the player isn't sitting particular close to a speaker and that you have decent, shielded A/V cables and a good surge protector.

Yes, there is a possibility of wireless interference. The monitor broadcasts on 2.4 GHz and some routers run on the same frequency (we have a Qwest Q1000 and it does get interference). Check to see what you wireless router uses to see if there is a conflict.

I never turn off my receiver and it does not seem to mess with the wi-fi at all so my answer is NO it does not interfere with wi-fi.

I have had no issues at all with interference. Also you can select different channels. So I would expect it to work fine for you.

Yes, at least with my router. I tried moving the transmitter as far as 20 feet away and it was still a problem. It even interfered with my 2.4ghz wireless keyboard.

First, you should know that all current Wi-Fi signals from A to N operate on a 2.4ghz frequency band. G suffers from interference problems from other devices operating on the same frequency levels like wireless telephones for example. Within the 2.4Ghz band there are 14 internationally designated wi-fi channels. Depending on where you live you can access between 10 to all 14. I think the U.S. only allows 12 for reasons I won't get in to here. Bottom line is that if your neighbors are using a certain channel and you get interference, with a G router you have plenty of others to choose from. The good news is that a G router's optimal range is about 100 meters and degrades enough that only your immediate neighbors will interfere with your signal. So most of the time it isn't a problem, just switch to another channel... N routers operate on 2.4Ghz AND 5Ghz. The optimal range is also tripled to roughly 300 meters. The advantage here is that the 5Ghz band (if you decide to utilize it) doesn't have much traffic so you are ensured a good signal. But in an apartment, I always found G was fine if I switched to a channel my neighbors weren't using. So, my advice is to buy G. Also a lot of companies jumped a ahead and implemented N before it was even approved by the IEEE (it'll be official January 2010). I've had problems with all brands of N working with each other over the past few years. Also, if you buy a N, you'll have to enable B and G anyway if you have older computers or visitors with old laptops. If you don't they won't be able to use your wireless. N is too new.

You should be able to see both the 2.4 and the 5 ghz WiFi channels on your phone; if you can't, then go into the WD dashboard using your PC and make sure that the 2.4 ghz channel is on and that you have set a password. The 2.4 ghz channel has much better range, so you will definitely want to synch to that one.
