WLAN problem

It is a problem in Windows XP in combination with a wireless Internet connection.
There is a protocol that says: every minute, kill the Internet connection a second and look for a faster connection.
This is for problems with your connection. If you have an interference on the wifi, the speed goes down. But if Windows wouldnt check the speeds every minute, it could get stuck in a low speed. So every minute Windows kills the connection a second and looks for a faster connection.

It is called: the Wireless Zero Configuration-service
It is automaticaly turned on by Windows XP on startup, because it needs it to establish a Wi-Fi connection, but after the connection is established, it can be stopped/killed and then the pauses/glitches are gone.

We added a registry entry to windows to automaticaly kill the process after startup, but you can always do it manualy in the 'services' program of Windows. In the Services list, there is the Wireless Zero Configuration-service, stop that and the problem is solved!!

And this also is a big help when gaming online. Same problem, same solution.

So, for everyone with a wireless network with glitch problems, this is the solution: kill the Wireless Zero Connection-service after (!) startup.
Start-->Control Panel-->Admin Tools-->Services-->Wireless Zero Config Properties
-->General-->Services statu-->STOP-->Apply.
Note you can not set to disable as your network will never start but you can follow this tip below:
