Anyone any idea what's causing this? The DSL had been up for 130 days (working perfectly) until this morning when it resynced of its own accord, and ever since then it's been a pig to link a laptop to the router. I'm getting the entries below in the system log all day... frequent reconnects every few seconds... which just make the laptop hang. It's fine when connected with a LAN cable. Does this look like radio interference of some kind causing the wireless link to drop out?

I had recently changed to using wireless "n" protocol and for reasons I'm not sure about, either my laptop's wifi card, or the router's wireless transmission, has developed a dislike for 802.11n. Something is causing the signal to be corrupted. I did a scan using Pingplotter which showed a lot of packet loss, even between the router and the laptop, and this kept fooling the router to think the laptop had logged out.
The cure was to revert to 802.11g, which seems to be totally clean. Having said that, I've just tried "n" it again and it seems ok. Might be a radio ham lurking!
