Hi Art, I'm very surprised no one has suggested a CORCOM 6EF1 line filter for your computer power supply. These can be had for $5-6 and replace the modular AC receptacle in your existing power supply. I would certainly do this before replacing the power supply. Here's a

Assuming you have several ethernet cables connected to that router, disconnect each in turn and see if only one of them is at fault. If so, replace it or try toroids. Years ago I had major noise pickups from inside the house - problem was solved when I dumped an antenna tuner with balanced
