It could be the wireless network causing it.  When they retrain, which they do when excess bit errors occur you can lose a number of packets.
For TCP/IP protocols, it just means the packets are retried, but for UDP, the packets are just lost.

Best way to eliminate that as a possibility is to connect directly to the cable modem and see if it stops.
