It may.

If so, what sorts of packets or patterns should I be looking for in 
Wireshark?

You won't see it because the computer you're capturing traffic on will 
drop corrupt frames (detected using the 4-byte CRC32 at the end of each 
frame) before you see them.

Does it seem unlikely that a problem related to EMF would only affect 
one software process on one computer?

Yes.
