Try swapping to WEP or update to DD-WRT. These seem to generally solve the cycling issue. Otherwise, consider buying a different router. FYI, I've never had any connection issues with my Linksys.

No definite solution. It's a little better if:
1. You configured your router to G or B only mode instead of mixed or N.
2. Try WEP or WPA.

try connecting to someone else's wifi and see what happens first.
