Some wireless devices (routers as well as adapters) do not work as well if at all with Windows 7 as they do with Windows XP.
Have you considered checking for a possible firmware update for the wireless router you are using?
Have you tried a factory reset on the router you are using and starting over by temporarily running it open and then reconfiguring the wireless security? WPA and or WPA2 seem to work better with Windows 7 than WEP. Have you tried simply changing the channel you are using (experiment by trying various channels-> 1, 3, 6, 9, 11)
What wireless router are you using? Manufacturer Name, Model Name, Model Number, Revision Number?
What wireless adapter are you using? Same details including driver version number and date.

No,with that type of ping intermittent latency, I would suspect a network bottleneck that might be caused by the router's quality of service (QoS) module mishandling ICMP packets, noise / interference, proximity issues (too far from or too close to the router) or just a router that is overburdened. Can you test by turning off all the other network nodes leaving only your computer and the router running during the test?

"get back to normal" for how long before the issue reappears?
Do you have the ability to test using the ethernet (wired) adapter connected to your router to see if you have the same issue. Disable or disconnect the USB wireless adapter when performing this test.

Hi

I admit I didn't read through all the posts so if someone already said this I apologize.

One of the most common causes of Windows 7 dropping connections that I've seen, (and this has been true since beta) is an app installed by several programs named "Bonjour Services".

This is installed by ITunes and some Adobe software.

I've had at least 5 instances on my own computer where I had to remove this to get my connection to stay up.

Look and see if you have it installed, it you do uninstall it or turn it off and see if that solves the problem.

When I was having this issue I could restart the connection by going to Network Settings and disabling and then re-enabling the service or as you said unplugging the router and plugging it back in again.

Mike
