Blutooth Mighty Mouse and Wireless Network

Hi all,

When I turn on the Wireless Migthy Mouse, my wireless internet connection is no longer working.

If I turn off the Migthy Mouse, the Internet connection is back.

I had found very few post about this problem which is preventing me to use the Wireless Mighty Mouse with my Wireless Network.

The wireless router I have is a D-Link DI-524. I tried, as suggested on the D-Link web site, changing the router channels between 1, 6 and 11 but this as no impact the interference issue (I wrote something else in a previous post beleiving it was working with channel 11, but it wasn't).

I could not beleive this; the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies must work together. Do I need another wireless router which is Bluetooth compliant or what?

I hope someone will bring ligth in this situation!

Nothing to do with the channel; i tried as suggested on the D-Link website the channel 1, 6 and 11 that are the only channels that are not overlapping each other with no difference.

However, I found something on the D-Link website suggesting that the D-Link router must be set to WEP 128bits HEX to work with airport products. At that time, I was using WAP-PSK (which was working by the way).

Switching from WAP to WEP have mostly solved the bluetooth issue. At least, this have improved a lot the internet connection but I'm not even know how to evaluate the connection speed. I think that the bluetooth mouse still have an impact.
