I'm using ST 576 and pcmcia D-Link G650.
I was arranging to visit a friend, who used to be network director of Pipex, and mentioned problem to him.
He suggested interference or possibly someone running a more powerful router nearby - maybe new neighbour.
He said to manually change router channels - my Speedtouch was set to Ch 6 automatically so manually changed it to Ch 12. No more disconnects and a steady 54.0 Mbps.

Started sequentially from Ch 1. The clear winner was Ch 11.

Quote from: Chris It's a good idea to try to spread out the channels you try first, so go for 1, 6 then 13 and work through the intermediate ones after.
bear in mind that some PC of american heritage only go up to channel 12

I've installed NetStumbler and can't see any other local networks that use Channel 6 so still don't know what was causing interference.
