I've had the Motorola Droid for a few months and love it. But I have this weird problem when sometimes it will momentarily knock out the internet connection on my entire home network when connecting to the wireless. It happens sporadically, so it's not easily repeatable, but when it does happen, it's instant.
So I'll wake up my phone and attempt to do anything requiring an internet connection, phone detects my wireless network and tries to connect, and instantly all the applications running on my desktop pc (which is wired to the router) will report that my connection to the internet has been lost. After about 5 seconds, the connection comes back and everything restores itself. So it may not seem like too bad of a problem, except if I happen to be playing a game online, I'll get dropped.
I have a pretty typical setup in my house, no other wireless devices have caused this kind of interruption before. I'm actually on my second Droid (bad headphone jack) and both phones have had this issue. Anyone else experience something similar? or have any suggestions? I've searched around and couldn't find anyone with a similar problem.
Home setup:
Verizon fios-branded wireless router/hub
Wired windows desktop + various game consoles
Wireless Wii + roommate's laptop
