Ah right ahead of you:
I have no proof at this moment in time, but I have tried these tests on another laptop with a different card. The other card would get spikes between 1-200ms but it didn't cause any interruptions. My laptop on the other hand had spikes of 0.01s to 25 seconds at a time (most of the pings would timeout for a few minutes after if they were bad enough). It basically halted internet connectivity. I tried turning off bluetooth at first, but it does nothing. This has been happening since the beginning of time with my notebook but it's only now that I can actually see it happen in front of my eyes.
