wireless card issues

I just moved and got cable Internet again and went with wireless networking cards. I was playing online and noticed about every minute that the connection would go bad for a couple seconds. I am assuming this is from the wireless card rescanning for networks every minute. Is their a way to turn that off, or could it be something else?

You are much better off going back to wired.
I'd guess any number of other radio signals causing this.
"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

I found that if I disable XP's "Wireless Zero Configuration" it fixes it. I can't run lines to all the locations I want but I may run 1 for my main computer.
