Dropping Wireless Connection.

Dimension 4600, with a LinkSys Wireless-G network adapter. Been running
nicely for at least 2 years, but recently it has been losing the network
connection after it runs for a while. The only solution is to reboot.

I've confirmed I have the latest LinkSys software (2004 I believe).

Last night it dropped 3 times after starting Microsoft Update, though not
always at the same place. Gave up and went to bed.

Tonight I tried Microsoft Update again about 15 minutes after turning the
machine on and the connection dropped almost immediately. I rebooted, and
the machine has been behaving for the last 90 minutes.

I run PC-Cillin as a virus checker, and regularly run Spybot and Ad_Aware.
I'm running PSK wirelesss security.

Any thoughts?
