When using a wireless connection Vista causes lag spikes every min

[Apalvare]

I have tried wireless gaming in Vista. I know I know you aren't supposed to
use wireless connections when gaming but I can't not run an ethernet cable up
two stories.

My problem is that Vista searches for a "better connection" every minute.
This causes a huge lag spike and freezes me in every game every minute. It
is very very annoying. You can't disable this feature without killing your
connection.

Some have suggested using a 3rd party wireless software to manage your
connection but as far as I know Linksys has not provided this yet and there
is no word if they will.

Has anyone found a solution to this problem? Does anyone know if Microsoft
is addressing it?

I'am having the same problem with my gaming. If you can turn off zero
configuration then that would be your best bet. but i have yet to find out
how to do that. I'am useing a Edimax Ralink Wireless card.

From what I have read turning off Zero Configuration in Vista completely
disables your wireless connection.
