I've certainly heard of RF gear getting into IR receivers. Try the  
usual stuff, re-orient the antennas and/or the receiver. Turn off the  
wireless gear and see of that makes the interference go away.

You could try going with 802.11a which operates on a different  
frequency.

If you;re handy with a soldering iron you could try some bypass  
capacitors and/or series chokes on the receiver, but don't do that  
unless you know what you;re doing and are not worried about warranties.
