Default Tin foil hats really work

For months I had a problem where my internet connection would drop momentarily every time I used my 2.4 GHz cordless phone. Everything is wired directly, nothing even has wireless capability at all. I tried bypassing the router, using only my laptop, etc., all with the same problem. I can't move things farther apart because of the wiring.

Finally, I took a foil broiling pan from the kitchen, placed it between the cable modem and the phone, and made a call. No drop out at all! So now my cable modem is wearing a tin foil hat to keep the evil mind control rays out, and it works great. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
