How do I troubleshoot my Linksys wireless network. Every 63. second 1 packet
is lost. ONE

What would be my options to troubleshoot?

Are you near an airport? One of my clients a few miles line-of-sight
to the nearest small airport had the same symptoms (radar?). Major
WPA problems went away when they switched to WEP, if that helps...

No airport - problem is there with WPA, WEP and with no sceurity enabled.

It still sounds like some kind of interference, try the router in a
different location (if possible many miles away), changing the
channel, and looking for other APs, cordless phones, etc...

Using Windows WZC ? It does a 'thing' every sixty seconds here that fu's
streaming sound/video.
Might try using your cards utility and disabling the Service for Wireless
Zero Config.

It IS inference - many miles away solved it (no connection ;o) LOL)

Anyway, so chances are its a cordless phone?

Well, chances are it's some kind of 2.4GHz device, but that doesn't
narrow it down much. Cordless phones, baby monitors, microwave ovens,
other APs, many industrial processes, ham radio gear, all kinds of
stuff runs at 2.4GHz.

Does it do it on all channels? Try 1, 6, and 11, as they are the
three non-overlapping ones.

even if not using wzc the managed service still does its thing every 60
seconds, unless its stopped and disabled.

The basic question is what RF device, regardless of frequency,
transmits only every 63 seconds? Off the top of my head:
1. Any cordless phone that has a "keep alive" that wants to verify
that the handset is within range.
2. GSM cell phone that responds to ident polls from the cell site.
3. Baby monitor with a VOX transmit circuit and a keep alive.
4. Wind sheer radar (possibly).
5. Wireless weather station, thermometer, rain guage, on 433.925Mhz
6. One of the new 2.4GHz cordless mice. Grrrrr.

I'm not sure how I would find the exact source.
I think #5 has the best guess.
