Hello,

On the 21.5" 2011 iMac, running Windows 7 in Boot Camp, I get persistent Wi-Fi drop-outs throughout the day. This issue doesn't occur within OS X, but it's literally every few minutes where the Wi-Fi simply grinds to a halt or begins to crawl; then, for seemingly no reason, it returns to normal operating speed.

This has been happening ever since I installed the Boot Camp drivers from the OS X install disc. I upgraded to Boot Camp 3.2 and the problem seems to persist. Is anybody else experiencing this issue? I searched these forums and it appears others are having a similar issue, but with the drop-outs occurring under OS X and not Windows.

Are there any suggestions, excluding re-installation of the drivers?

EDIT: A certain Windows update fixed it (some how..).
