Here's my 2 cents:
The frequency of your router is: 2.4GHz to 2.462GHz

Do you have another devices that are on that frequency -- portable phone, perhaps? The Mac people will set me straight on this, but I *think* the Mac Airport router is also transmitting on that frequency. Anyway, the point another router, phone, on that frequency could be giving you headaches.

We have a 2.4 GHz cordless telephone base unit that is about ten feet from the router. But we've had that telephone for awhile, and I never experienced network connection loss in the past, even with the telephone located where it is.

I guess I could test things by eliminating the phone as a factor. Question: When the cordless phone is "on hook" (that is, not being used) is the base unit still tramsmitting? If so, I probably shoud power off the telephone?

Thanks.
