Audio stream frequently interrupted no matter what streaming player was used

[dah68154]

This may not be the right place for this question, but if not, I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for the right place to go. I have a problem with frequently dropped audio streams. The problem may be broader than just audio streams, but that is what I have specifically noticed.

The problem is independent of the source of the audio stream or the media software I'm using. I have noticed it listening to Live365 Internet Radio using the Live365 player and Windows Media Player. Likewise, listening to internet radio stations directly using WMP.

Sometimes the connection is dropped and is reconnected after several seconds. Other times, particularly with the Live365 Player, the connection seems to be irretrievably lost without reestablishing the connection from the beginning. The ability to reconnect seems like it is then perhaps a software-specific issue.

My hunch is that it is some issue with individual computer settings that I'm not aware of. I have another computer linked wirelessly to the computer I'm having issues with and it doesn't have the same problems. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
