Interesting: I have DSL through Frontier here, and have not yet had that 
problem.

I HAVE had problems with the RF from my transmitter and amp modifying 
the settings in our wireless router to the extent that I had to reinstall those.

I also had to install those ferrite snap-on chokes on almost every wire going 
into and out of our entertainment equipment.
