FogTop - I am using a desktop, not a laptop.  It does not have any built in wireless connectivity.

Patricia - No, I do not have one of those devices that sends the internet signal thru the electrical wiring of the house.  I have a satellite internet provider.  The satellite signal comes into a utility shed located about 50-60 yards from my house/cottage.  The modem and/or router is located in the utility shed (I did not set all this up so not sure exactly what is configured in there).  There is then wiring that runs to my cottage and I have a jack, similar to a phone jack for a landline phone, but which takes an internet cable.  That is how I connect to the internet, by plugging a cable into that jack or outlet as I called it before.  The other end of that cable is plugged into my desktop computer.  

Hope that makes things clearer.  Important to note, this problem is not specific to this setup.  I have been sensitive to the internet signal in several places I have lived.  There is something about the internet signal that really bothers me.  I am surprised others do not have this problem.
