I've never heard of this, but here's what's going on...

I have a wireless G network set up in my home for 4 computers and my xbox. Recently I've been having problems in my TV/Games room with my laptops, as the wireless will just go on and off all the time. Couldn't figure it out for the longest time, but nothing was working, until I unplugged my Xbox wireless adaptor, and voila! I get full signal strength in the room again.

Now I've had my xbox wireless for 3 weeks now, and no problems until today, and as far as I'm aware, there's no way it should interfere with the signal, as all it does is receive the signal like any other wireless device.
So, is there some other issue going on and somehow I got lucky by turning off the xbox adaptor, or what??

I'm using a Linksys wireless G router with the most up-to-date firmware.
