Re: [WISPA] Re: Interference with TV
We have seen this from local oscillator and/or CPU clock oscillator interference from wireless radios used for Internet access. The radios in question were a Trango Fox one time and a YDI Etherant another time. I am guessing any radio using an external connected POE driven board over unshielded twisted pair could act as an interfering source. Brand is likely not important. This was corrected using RF Ferrite Beads installed at the cat 5 cable right as it comes out of the radio and at the POE end as well. If this does not fix it you will have to move the wireless radio or TV antenna apart farther than they are now. Cheers, Scriv Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] Re: Interference with TV
I note some of the respondents are thinking satellite. I'm thinking 10baseT or 100baseT bleeding into the household coax distribution. Any chance the ethernet runs alongside the coax for any length somewhere within the home? With cable TV I've seen ethernet put interference on the screen for weak cable stations. Since the sat dish is outside and we're talking wireless Internet coming in from outside too, any chance the ethernet is running along side the coax that feeds the inside satellite decoder? That might be able to take out all TV. Rich - Original Message - From: "Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] Re: Interference with TV
Not with Dish Network, but I have with the Musak dishes. I mounted right under one of their dishes on my client's rooftop. After I turn it on their music started skipping and cutting out. I relocated to a few feet away and the problem went away. I honestly didn't ask questions and didn't worry too much about it - I just know that with my box on (a Tranzeo TR-6015) the music would skip. When we would turn off the Tranzeo it would not. So, I just moved it, no big deal. - Original Message - From: "Marlon K.

Re: [WISPA] Re: Interference with TV
I know you're not asking if something between two and six gigahertz broadcasting at less than one watt could affect low megahertz spectrum. If your car horn honked every time you turned on the kitchen light, would you assume the kitchen light was honking the car horn? Whatever the problem is, it belongs to Echostar, not you. - cw Marlon K.
