Yes, definitely look at your filters (if you have any). Also, if you
have cordless phones in the house they can sometimes interfere with the
network signal - especially if the router and the phone operate on the
same frequency. 2.4Ghz is common these days. Just unplug your cordless
phones (from the electrical outlet) and see if the disconnect prob
persists. If it does, see if your phone has an option to switch
frequencies (routers usually don't - but you can chedk). You can also
try just changing the channels that your phone and/or router operate
on. Try lowering your phone's antenna - or move it further from the
router or PC if possible. You might have to buy new phones that use a
freq other than your router - like an old 900mhz if you can find one, or
the new 5Ghz models.
Good luck,
