I am seeing the same issues when connecting to my Linksys WRT54GS router. Connection gets dropped fairly often (true, it happens more often when I'm connected to the 770 using SSH). The Linksys is on channel 7 and I have two other access points in the house, one on channel 1 (an Airport Express from Apple) and another one on channel 11 (an ASUS WL-500gx). The connection to the Apple Airport Express seems to be solid most of the time, no dropouts or anything. But when connecting to the Linksys it disconnects very very often, sometimes it takes 3-4 retries to connect. I have tried both WEP and WPA-PSK, didn't seem to make a difference.

I'm pretty sure it's not a range issue, the 770 is literally within centimeters from the wireless router (all 3 routers sit under my desk and the 770 is on the desk).

Also, I'm pretty sure the Linksys is not faulty, I have a Pocket PC (an iPaq 4150) connecting to it even from outside the house with no problems (never dropped a connection) and also a wireless SIP phone (Zyxel P2000W) that connects without a hitch and never disconnects.

Any ideas?
