My config:
MacBook Pro
2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
OS X 10.6.3

My Issue: I've narrowed a lag issue down to my wireless card on my computer. The issue happens with any server on any router, and does not happen when using ethernet. I think it may be tied to Vmware, but I removed the daemons (it no longer shows up under processes and verbose mode at startup).

A ping shows the issue:

What I've done:

• Tried my best via forums to remove all things vmware related including the daemons, config, and application
• Searched forums to find a like issues; the ones I found usually have to do with the router and/or a gaming server. Mine is not gaming specific. It's any server on any router.
• Reset the interfaces by deleting networkinginterfaces.plist, etc.
• Reset the pram
• "Removed" the card via System Preferences > Networking. Used "-", restarted. No difference.

Thanks for looking, in advance! I gave up on this a while ago and now I'm revisiting the issue.
