In my case, it was something simple. RealPlayer 11 was the cause. Presumably something to do with the "stream catching" feature. Granted, it is a cool feature that will let you rip YouTube videos, songs from Pandora, and more... but the damn thing my computer virtually unusable for 3 days. I dragged the app to my trashcan and all my issues were resolved instantly (didn't even need to reboot).
I'm not sure if there was a setting or config in RealPlayer 11 that could have been switched to remedy the problem, but if you are having similar problems you may want to see if this is the culprit.

That's interesting ... I have seen that the WiFi Connection is away every 10 minutes for some seconds during the last few days without any changes on the hardware ... removed now RP11 as well and hope the problem has gone now!
I think there is a deeper problem. Why are you even bothering to use such a piece of crap like RealPlayer? They haven't had anything useful for, what, 8+ years now. Move along, nothing to see here.
Hi- I just wanted to update you and let you know that this problem is currently being addressed by the product team. It sounds like one of them has experienced a similar issue so they are trying to work through it. I will keep you posted on any news.

Hi -- I'm on the development team for RealPlayer for Mac OS X, and I'm following up on what Lacy said.
If anyone has seen this problem first-hand, could you shoot me an email? bobclark (at) real.com will get to me.
Thanks.
