i had my router and modem under my TV. bad idea, as the magnetic field around electrical goods and appliances does interfere with wifi routers and some modems.
i now have my router on the wall behind my curtains.the modem is tucked away under the sofa. but both are nowhere near any wires,TV's. and it works no more trouble with dropped connections or poor signal.

If the OP is using a hard-wired connection (which by the comment about the modem direct into the PC i would assume they either do or have tried it) then It would have to be a fairly strong magnetic field to cause that much of an issue, to the point where id be worried that somethings seriously not right.
