this used to happen to me no idea what fixed it honestly
your isp might be choking you so utorrent hogs all your bandwidth

Try going back to your old drivers.
Or better yet, stop using wireless completely.

When you installed new drivers it might have changed your max allowed open connections in windows, check that.
Also what's your upload speed at when it happens?
uTorrent is more than capable of jamming 90KB/s through my line with no lube that normally dies at around 60KB/s - gives me the exact same symptoms as you described.
