Interference on Cell Phone/Discord

codyu · Mar 5, 2018

I recently moved and quickly noticed an issue. My friends on Discord asked if I was watching sports in the background and later FOX channel, but I wasn't and also I heard nothing. I started looking into my headset (HyperX Cloud II) for the issue. The next day I got a call on my cell phone and they asked who was talking in the background. I moved my pc today and haven't had an issue, but I am unsure what was causing it. Help with this would be amazing.

Internet: Comcast Xfinity
Modem: NETGEAR CM500-1AZNAS (16x4) (Just noticed it says NAS, not sure if that's coincidence or I messed up when buying it)
Router: Netgear AC750
Cell Phone: Samsung Galaxy S8
Cell Provider: Sprint

I am also in the same room feet from the cable box, modem, and router.

Very odd. When I worked with the phone company crossed wires could cause this, but with the nature of the internet (where data is encrypted and encapsulated) that kind of "cross talk" really isn't possible. Also, it happened over completely different mediums (internet and cell network). I think instead it was the microphone of your headset and phone picking up something. Perhaps something through a wall or a strange parabolic effect in one spot of your new place (you said you moved your computer and now it seems to have stopped?).

And your modem is fine ... the NAS in the name is just a coincidence.

I sort of forgot about this since it seemed to have stopped, but I moved to another room and it started again. I've since learned that there is a radio station (AM I believe) right down the street. Not sure if I can do anything to help prevent it, but I think I'm just screwed
