Our previous intercom (very old) system was affected by my son's computer and the wireless internet. Has anyone had that problem with these?

No, but when we first got ours we would hear other conversations, which I assume came from the neighbors. All we had to do was change the channel and the problem was solved.

I have the same intercom system and wireless internet but I have not had that problem. My system is not quite a year old though. There is a paint ball arena close to my house that uses two way radios and I pick up their signal and can listen them as their playing but other than that the system works great.

No, we haven't experienced this problem with our system that we use in our two-story residence....

We have not had that problem with this set and we operate our business from pur home and our office is in our basement. We do live near the interstate and maybe twice has the CB's from the truckers very briefly came through but that is it.

They are very sensitive. We have yet to get a channel that doesn't have interference. Not sure if this is coming from our Wi-Fi but not entirely happy with the purchase because of the reception.

Personally, I haven't had any problem at all. I have my router in the other room and it connects just fine. I can't really give you an answer, because I have not experienced that kind of problem. Hope you figure it out. Good luck

I've never had a problem with internet while using them but sometimes when my phone updates over wifi the sound is kind of scratchy. I fixed that by moving the receiver to a line of sight position

Be advised it has a flaw in windows 8..liad windows 8.1 update or it will never stay connected to wireless internet for more than ten minutes at a time. Since installing 8.1 it seems to have fixed the problem.

Many things can affect the performance of your unit. These things can relate to the capabilities of the units wifi hardware, user configuration or even locatioin of your wireless solution. My wife loves hers so much, she watches her recorded shows on it and it never drops. All be it - all internal wifi communication but on the internet, I have not heard her complain either.Sorry to hear you are having issues with it. Check out google for optimizing wifi communications for more ideas.

These intercoms require that both buildings' electrical systems be tied together. My recommendation is to use walkie-talkies. That is the solution I chose for a similar problem.

Not that I know of. I did extensive research in 2012 and found this to be the best on the market.From what I understand it still is in the top three or four but everyone argues theirs is the best. If you are having some kind of interferance can you think of somthing that might be causing it like any form of large machinery, Microwave or electronic device that is "wireless"? Some wifi routers and older cell phones can cause interferance with some sensative electronics.

Once in awhile when I power mine up, I get a "rushing" noise that requires it to be powered down and powered back up again. Not sure what that is. It's not interference from my home wireless network. Mildly annoying.

I have not experienced those issues. I recommend checking to see if there are any firmware updates for your unit. You have to connect your unit to a internet connected computer to perform the online check and updates.

I had a problem initially when I was trying to connect to a wireless network. The connection was weak and frequently dropped completely. then I had an electrician run an Ethernet cord from my router upstairs directly to the Yamaha receiver which is located downstairs about 100 feet away from the router. after this direct connection from the router to the receiver I no longer lose Internet connectivity and can listen to net radio 24-7 without any problems.

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.

Berry:I tried both wireless and hardwired (Ethernet cable). With hardwire, it works well. Wireless: not reliable. I had to have another one sent since the voice dropped off so bad and the wireless signal reception was poor even in front of the wireless router! The second one was slightly better, but the voice quality was very poor or could not connect. I discussed it with OOMA, but I would have to return to Amazon to get the refund. By that time I could not return it. So, I am stuck with it. It really amazes me that they sell such a poor quality product.In summary: it is bad idea to use this wireless.

No, this wireless card issue has not been addressed in the version of the computer that I have. I have my computer one floor and several walls from the router and the internal wireless just doesn't have enough power to supply what I need. I have instead put a USB wireless N adapter on. That has served me well so far and the USB adapter isn't expensive. I will say that other than the wireless thing, I am very satisfied with this computer. It has a lot of power for the money.

I do get some interference, in the form of slower throughput, but separating the control box from the Wi-Fi-equipped computer helps significantly, as does forcing Wi-Fi onto channel 11.My base station is NOT near the speakers, but testing with them at least in the same room didn't show much improvement. In some cases they might "see" each other and pick non-busy channels. Different routers might behave differently, too.Bottom line - they're great speakers, but the Wi-Fi interference is a major flaw in something aimed at being PC speakers!

Since my original post, I've gotten the package & set it up. I didn't experience any of the problems I thought possible. I have a portable phone, wirelee PC, wireless printer, wireless sub & my wireless router (all within about 4 feet of each other). I haven't had any issues whatsoever with any of piece of equipment, so far. Currently the TV is connected to the net with an ethernet cable to the router, so I don't know if I ever go wireless with the TV connection, if it will present a problem.I did notice, somewhere in one of the manuals, that if a channel conflict were detected it would look for a clearer one. Again, I'm happy as can be with all facets of this setup. The TV & soundbar are unbelievable! Since my original post, I've gotten the package & set it up.
