Are these drops of the connection every minute or so? If so, you've
probably got IEEE 802.1x Authentication enabled. Check the Properties of
the wireless connection icon in Network Connections, go to the Wireless
Networks tab, highllight your LAN in the window under Preferred Networks and
then tap the Properties button. Next, go to the Authentication tab, and
make sure there's NO check mark in the box next to "Enable IEEE 802;1x
authentication for the network."

If this is the case, and you're simply using WPA or WEP encryption on your
LAN, the networking device will be finding the LAN, connecting and then
failing out trying to authenticate (which is being refused by the router).
Then it does the process over and over. 8-)
