Could be an intermediate frequency leakage issue from the radio in the 2011?

shut off.  Drove my mom nuts.

I do not know if it is actually analog or one of those desktop digital rabbit ears.  Have 
not inspected anything yet, just know that I can remotely disable the wireless on the 
RB-2011 and they say both TV's immediately clear up and work fine, re-enable the wireless 
(no change to ethernet or anything else) and both TV's go fuzzy and they start getting 
what they call "pauses" in both the video and sound.

Wow, analog TV?
Yes, 100 Mbps ethernet will interfere with analog OTA.

But I figured everyone would be digital by now.

Interesting issue.  Installed a Mikrotik RB-2011 at a customer site
(replaced an older Linksys WRT-54G and DSL router with
wireless) and since then the customer says that when the
2011 is on (wireless on) their TV's are fuzzy and the picture and
sound pauses and breaks up.  I can disable the wireless on the TIK and
both TV's clear up immediately.  Have tried changing frequencies
around but that does not seem to help at all.  Believe they are using
just simple desktop "rabbit" ears for the OTA TV, but have never run
into this before.

Any ideas?
