I suffered through this for a long time, I finally went and bought a new access poing and I no longer have the problem.

I originally had an old 802.11B only access point, linksys wap2.2 and I had that problem on my 770, and multiple 800's.

I now have a A/B/G netgear and I dont have any problems and I no longer have to ping things to keep my ssh sessions alive.

I am sure thats not what you want to hear, but its my experience...

Good Luck
