    Not sure this is the correct forum.

    The router might have developed a fault. Has anything been put near it such as a cordless landline phone? Do other devices such as laptops connect to the wireless ok? This would help narrow down the problem.

    Try changing the channel on the wireless access point (normally your ADSL router). Someone else might be using the same or nearby one.

    Channels 1, 6 and 11 are the ones to try - all the others inbetween overlap a little.
