A couple of people have reported recently that they need to keep resetting the wireless adapter on their laptop. This can be done by following the troubleshooter wizard, or the command-line utility DevCon could be used to make a little script to disable/reenable the wireless adapter, but it's annoying!
Here are some of the suggestions for things to check/do:
1. Get the right drivers for the network adapter
2. Update router firmware, and try changing it to a different channel (if you have access to it)
3. Check for viruses and malware
4. Reset winsock
5. Make sure there are no conflicting wireless devices nearby (eg mobile phone)
It's also worth testing the machine on battery only and on the mains.
