Funnily enough I've just helped my uncle out with exactly the same symptoms.
Clear out all saved/preferred connections and (temporarily) disable all wireless security on the router - then see how it compares.
Then look at re-enabling WEP/WPA/Whatever.
That seemed to fix it for my uncle, see how you get on.

It's not an Orange or Talk-Talk issued router is it?
My GF's parents had a problem connecting to theirs because it's got some stupid 'pairing mode' that you need to activate before trying a first time connection.
sorry, not much help - I hate wireless and have got ethernet cables run all around my house for that exact reason

Is the aerial done up tightly enough?
Had this problem with ours, spent ages dicking about with settings only to discover the aerial was loose.
