Hello, I am having a problem with 3 Netgear WG11v2 Wireless USB adapters and a Toshiba PCX5000 Router. We have pretty decent speed from the internet on the wireless (1.5 mb down and around 300k up on Road Runner), but every 60 seconds exactally there is a high spike in ping. It really mess with online gaming badly. We have tried the following:reseting the modem, disabling firewall, changing the wireless channel, enabling and disabling WEP, and disconnecting 2 of the 3 wireless computers. No p2p downloads at all when this happens, it goes on no matter what. I pinged the router in the cmd console with the +t paramater and low and behold every 60 seconds the ping from the router goes from 2-6 MS to 1600+MS like clockwork. I have contacted my ISP and am waiting on them to call me, but in the mean time I was hoping someone here may know what is going on with the router and/or wireless adapters or what is happening in the house every 60 secs to cause this spike. Any help is very appreciated.
