THIS IS ABOUT "WALLWARTS"
I have had quite a bit of problems with the plug in remote power
supplies.
If the thing is bulky and heavy it will be  I hope  a transformer
rectifier supply.If it 
is reasonably small and light weight it wil be a "switcher" supply, those
things because of their design
have all kinds of harmonics.  To really find out run your router from a
stable dc source such as a battery to test out the thing.
Then look for one that is heavy and quiet.  Another solution will be to
filter the input and output with ferrite donuts, improvise, i did.
you may never get all of the spikes controlled but try any how.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL AND HAVE A VERY NICE 2008
