I don't know a solution but the router will appear in the list along with neighboring routers but it will disappear and the others will still be there so it's not an adapter problem something in the router stops sending a signal

disable the DHCP server in the WGR. It worked for me. Try downloading newer firmware version something like ...23

I'm suffering the same trouble (and more similar stuff) with the same evil router! EVIL ROUTER this one!

I wish there was some firmware update or something... It's ridiculous that the connection dies so easily. Over heated? Bug? sigh... Been suffering for many many months+ now...

also try changing the wireless channels to 11 to reduce interference to 3rd party hardware such as cordless phones, and power settings should be 10 to ensure modem is broadcasting at full 400mW of power. do not put the modem near your cordless phones, and it must be sitting upright.
