i access the internet from my desktop and laptop which are both upstairs and connect via wifi.
when i have timeouts all my wifi connected devices experience it and my rigs downstairs have connection problems thru cgminer

Where do you access Internet from? from the rigs, or another computer. If another computer, is it connected to the same 16 port switch?
When you have Internet time out issue, were all rigs working fine or also timed out?

not really but i'll do it anyway
The "modem w/ wifi" from ISP is a model (DSL?) and router combo. Some router's can't handle the high # of connections that mining uses.
modem w/ wifi is a Motorola Surfboard SBG901, cable internet. I even upgraded to the 10mb bandwidth that my isp offered
#2 i'll add the --net-delay command line, what does it do exactly?
Care to look it up in the README?

#1 modem w/ wifi from ISP to netgear 16 port switch. the rigs are wired.

#3 already ran anti-virus and malwarebytes
#4 i can be using the internet just fine, everything loads as it should, then BAM!! timeouts like crazy for a period of time and eventually recovers on it's own

I get timeouts every few mins but when I disconnect the rig the internet works flawlessly. Anybody ever experience this or have ideas how to resolve it?
What did you mean "every few mins"? it's not a continuous outage, and can recover on its own?
or simply a bad NIC
Also check the machine for malware or rootkits. you might something using all your bandwidth.
Although the actual bandwidth required for mining is minimal, the fact that requests go out simultaneously tends to stress some cheap routers. If you are using cgminer to mine with, try the --net-delay option.
how is your 5830 rig connected to the internet? are those 3 rigs connected to one switch then to a wired/wireless router, or they all connected to the router directly?
i have a really weird problem. I have 3 mobo's in my basement, 2 have 1 5830 each and the other has 4 5830's.
They're all Win7 x64 2gb ddr3 ram or higher except the one is a low quality P.O.S. with 2gb ddr2 ram and a via 1.7 cpu lol.
Anyways... my rig with the 4 5830's is causing problems with my internet. I get timeouts every few mins but when I disconnect the rig the internet works flawlessly. Anybody ever experience this or have ideas how to resolve it?
