Move router far from hifi components?


I just finished reading Hans Beekhuyzen's Kindle book on file based audio. This is what he said about where your router should go.


"Like cell phones, Wi-Fi uses radio frequencies that might cause interference in your stereo. Try to keep the Wi-Fi access point as far as possible from the hifiequipment and always use well shielded audio, power and network cables on your hifi. If Wi-Fi is your only choice, you’d rather hope you’re in an area that has little Wi-Fi traffic."

i don't think I have heard about this before and was wondering if this really makes a difference. I'm tempted to move my router and modem to another room to test but wanted to poll everyone to see if they have done this.

Regarding LPS, how do you folks make sure you're getting a compatible unit to replace the wall plug, e.g., what specs, which supplier, etc.? Thanks.
By the way it sounds counterintuitive (to me) to keep the router too far away from the audio gear if your audio gear includes a WiFi enabled streamer. Unless I'm missing something.
