Try changing the channel number? There might be some interference somewhere.

Reset it to factory default and set it up for your ISP again. It worked for me.

Wireless networking is a pain in the ****. Do yourself a favour and switch over to Powerline ethernet. I did and it just plain works - 24/7.

it could also depend on how your router is set up. Some routers have an always connected option, if yours has, make sure this is checked.
Download netstumbler to see if anyother networks are nearby, you can check what channel they are on and change yours accordingly if there are 2 nets withing range on the same channel.
