A common complaint when using a Linksys router is interference between a 2.4 GHz phone system and the wireless network. A few things you can do is change the channel of the phone or the Router so they use different channels. You could also move the phone's base station so that it's farther away from the Router.

It is good to know that Linksys Routers only work with external cable or DSL modems featuring Ethernet ports.
