Yes, I have seen this same issue on our Netbook. It is frustrating, here is a post of info I found from another site>

This issue does apply to both Digital Audio and midi....

I brainstormed for a while last night and may have found another solution to this problem. Back in late December I recalled reading on another forum about a guy who had stutters on his home wifi, but didn't experience them when he brought his netbook to other wifi sources such as his school or at friends' houses. I did a little research into wifi routers causing audio conflicts and didn't find much. I decided to try turning off the wifi on the netbook, then unplugging my wireless router and letting it boot up fresh. Then I turned my netbook wifi back on and it has been working like a champ for over 12 hours. I use a dsl 2WIRE wireless router, and rebooting it seemed to have made all the difference. I don't know if some kind of static or interference builds up in some routers, or why it would only seem to affect audio on my netbook, but since I rebooted my wireless router all is well.
Try rebooting your modem and testing for stutters, or even take your netbook to another wifi location and see if the problem goes away. It seemed like a longshot, but I've got results.
Let me know how this works for you, and maybe we can attribute this problem to certain routers. This might shake up the laptop/notebook world a bit because there are quite a few brands/models of laptop that have had stutter issues that i've read about, and it would be hilarious if it had been routers causing many of these problems the whole time. Wasn't always in relation to wifi, but it could be useful to people who hadn't noticed that the problem is particular to when wifi is activated. I imagine my stutters will return eventually, but if simply rebooting my router fixes it, then I'll be more than satisfied with my netbook.

The other thing Ive been told is that there is a Bios update that you need to make with your Netbook. I tried to update mine by going to the Acer website, and I spent 2 hours trying to get the right update file!

Hope some of this info helps you,
Ed
