Vaio - WiFi Limited Connection when I plug in HDMI or USB cable

Hi, 

For the last few weeks my WiFi has not been working. I have been going around in circles trying to fix it. I have narrowed it down to when I plug in the HDMI cable to my monitor or a USB cable (e.g. for my wireless keyboard or mouse). Within a minute or so the internet stops working (limited connection). If I unplug them, the internet connection is restored. 

 

I have been using my Vaio laptop with a monitor/wireless keyboard & mouse for over a year now with no problems. 

 

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul

I solved this by changing the channel that the WiFi router was broadcasting - the monitor was somehow interfering with the wifi signal.
