I have a 2.4 GHx phone that brings the phone out to the Mac like the 
airport brings the network, and there was no increase in flakeyness with 
the addition of the phone.  But I swear someday I'll dig a trench.

As for H2O, that's consistent with the rain interfering with the 
Airport.  And I've heard that leaves in the spring and summer can act 
like little antennas/absorbers.
