Yesterday I bought and installed a wireless network (again, old one had problems). Now when i play games every 60 seconds or so the game will freeze for about 1 - 2 seconds then continue as normal (noticed on WoW and warcraft3 although not on CoH).

- My computer is connected to the network using the wireless USB adapter.
- Drivers all installed although I havn't updated the router firmware or got any new drivers, all are from the CD.
- The router is a D-Link DKT-710.
- The network is set to "G" and the speed set to "auto" in the settings.
- There is basic encryption active.
- I have AVG and windows firewall active (although still jutters with firewall off).

I wasn't having the problem from what I saw when the computer was using a wired network, its not a power issue as it never happens under any other situation and the signal strength is very good / excellent.

Any tips please or help. Its not fatal but REALLY annoying.

Thanks in advance

edit: as an example on warcraft 3, the figures on the map freeze for a second but all animations in the action bar (i.e. the portrait) keep animation.

What network card you using, as it could be the drivers?

Try installing the latest drivers you can find, and see how it goes.
 
its the adapter that came with the kit, crappy little USB thing. i had a look for updated drivers but theres nothing in the D-Link website unless i'm being totally blind =/
