Activesync drops wireless connection

I use a wireless connection on my laptop which works 99.9% flawlessly
without interruptions for many months. It connects on my wireless network
which consists of a router which uses channel 6 and an access point which
uses channel 11. I have AS 4.2 and have been using it to sync with my
i-mate ppc without any problems. I just changed phone and noticed the
following strange problem: As soon as I connect the new phone/pda to usb and
AS starts sync, my wifi connection drops and after a while a get "limited or
no connectivity", this happens because it stops the connection on the access
point which uses channel 11 and tries to connect to channel 6 which is far
away with very low signal.

Why could AS connection prohibit my laptop from using channel 11?
