Re: Periodic lost Wi-Fi packets

I've seen similar symptoms that were due to an auto update running on the PC. The classic was Autodesk Updater. What was happening is it periodically tried to connect to the manufacturers website to see if an update had been issued.

We'd see the wifi get interrupted every minute or two as the updater took over and tried to phone home.

You can watch the Task Manager Processes list to see if anything is popping to the top every two minutes when your dropout occurs.
