The Proform Zt3 treadmill causes my DSL (WIFI) modem to go offline even when the modem is being run on battery. Is there a way to fix this? I called the company and they couldn't provide any answer.

Move the TM away from the router.
or neuter the TM wifi, inside, pull card, or antenna. inside.
or warp the TM wifi box in aluminum foil (faraday shield magic)

if you shield that wifi modem that kills dead the whole house for wifi.

move the router or TM, or shield or neuter the TM wifi card.
To render ineffective or powerless: meaning 2 websters.

wifi is RADIO and as such RADIO cures work.
distance (either or both)
disablement.(TM end)
shields. (TM end)
1,2,3, all work. every one works.
I am licensed by FCC. so ... there go.

    good luck to you,, wifi is a big pain if you have RFI issues. like baby monitors or old landline portables near.
    one trick if source is not know,
    is to trip breaks room by one to find the offender. then when that is found pull cords.

If the treadmill produces that much RFI that it interferes with your modem, the ONLY thing you can try is shielding of the modem -

SOURCE: telephone connection problem with DSL

unplug everthing from all jacks in the house. call your # a couple of times. if the line rings, plug everything in 1 at a time, but call again after each hook up. if the line goes dead or is busy, that phone you just plugged in is the problem. [ a short in the phone, computer, answer machine, or any piece of equipment plugged into the phone line.] if the line is busy when everything is unplugged, call your phone company. there maybe a problem with your inside wire.there also maybe a box [called a nid] inside your basment/garage or on the side of your house, where you can plug your phone directly in, bypassing all the jacks in your house
hope this helps.

SOURCE: Cannot connect with ATT modem

Connect your pc to the ATT box. If online, check the ip address of the computer. If the ip address is 192.168.1.x, then you just have to change the router ip address. The wrt54g ip is 192.168.1.1, it may be having conflict with the ATT modem. Change the wrt54g ip to 192.168.2.1

Good Luck

Proform 765 EKG

If I understand correct, the treadmill will not run correct unless you have the safety key in. Well yes this is correct because once the safety key is removed the treadmill will stop. If your treadmill is running extremely fast just by turning it on, you may need a new speed sensor. www.AtlantaFitnessRepair.com

Treadmill stops running

I had simillar problem. I have proform 830 QT. My trademill stops after 10 minutes of work out. Everything shuts down and the circuit breaker pops out.

Root cause:- no lubrication under walking belt. Caused the moter to over work (over heat) and hence te circuit breaker popped out to prevent blowing of motor.

Solution:- Apply the lubricant under walking belt and adjust the belt tension if needed.

Back ground:- Contact proform customer service at 1-888-533-1333 (http://www.iconservice.com/proform/faq_tread.html) and buy the treadmil cleaning kit or lubricant kit which comes with a wand for easy application. It may cost you 35 dollars including shipping. If you need to fix your treadmil right away, use NAPA silicon spray 8300. Proform actually tells do not use it as it may damage your belt. However the specialst who came to fix my treadmill just sprayed it and collected 100 dollars. When I called proform they told me lubricating will fix it and its my mistake to not trust them. I guess they knew exactly what they were saying.
