Stupid question, but does anyone know why you would get bumped off your wifi network if someone else is using it as well?

I don't normally have any connection issues with my wifi network, but when my Aunt's Granddaughter comes home from School and stays with her (we have separate apartments btw), I always lose my wifi connection every few minutes and it is very sporadic.

I've rebooted both the wifi router and the DSL modem, but seems like that doesn't help. I've also reserved IP addresses for the different devices within the wifi config settings (192.168.0.1), but that doesn't seem to help. I'm normally pretty good with computers, but I'm stumped on that for some reason.

Does anyone out there have some kind of solution that I could try? FWIW, I have a DSL connection and am using a Dlink DSL 2540B modem and a Dlink DIR615 Wifi Routerj
