I hooked up my linksys wireless router and it works great. The porblem is now all my cordless phones do not work. The router is on a separate line (office line) and the home line is now messed up. Any ideas as to how to remedy this?

If the phone lines are separate than the usual issue, filters, is not the obvious culprit (but check they're in place anyway).

More likely a wireless issue -- the usual advice is to keep the phone base station as far as possible from the router and computer. Also try changing channels on both the phones and the router.
