Wireless drops every minute after upgrade to Wheezy

What should I do?

First, you should learn how to formulate a smart question (1). Then come back.

I'm sorry I didn't give a lot of background, partly because I wasn't sure what was relevant. Having to deal with a disconnection every 30 seconds was a bit disconcerting.

I was hoping someone had a similar problem, and might relate what they did to fix it, if they were able to. Or maybe someone could tell me what log output would be relevant, since there are many log files, configuration files, and wireless-related commands.

The suggestions at the link you posted (which I did for about 8 hours)

Try to find an answer by searching the archives of the forum you plan to post to (yes, I did this)
Try to find an answer by searching the Web. (yes, I did this, searched on log error messages, and found some vague hints and possibilities)
Try to find an answer by reading the manual. (yes, I read about my wireless card's driver and the Network Manager)
Try to find an answer by reading a FAQ. (ditto)
Try to find an answer by inspection or experimentation. (yes, I tried a few things that others suggested)
Try to find an answer by asking a skilled friend. (this will shock you, but none of the friends I can contact on Sundays know much about Debian Linux)
If you're a programmer, try to find an answer by reading the source code. (If you'd like to direct me toward which code, I will read it.)

The wireless connection worked fine before the Wheezy upgrade. It seems to be fixed now, but it doesn't make sense, since I toggled it back, but I guess I'll just hope no one else has this constant disconnecting problem that began just after the Wheezy upgrade.

And we still do not know which kernel or network device is in use, nor can we read the related system messages. Anyway, I am glad that your issue is now solved.
