Limited Connection issues using wireless

When connecting my laptop wireless I have to try mutliple times to get a connection.  I get a Limited Connection issue.  Then some times, connect right away.  After connected for a while, will again lose connection.  I have tried resetting my router (MI424WR).  Sometimes that helps and I can connect, but again after a period will lose connection.

I tried to connect my desktop using a USB networkadaptor and also get the Limited Connection error.

Any suggestions?  Thanks!

What USB Wireless card are you using? What Operating System is the desktop running? Are you using the default "WEP" Security or are you using WPA or WPA2 security? Do any other devices have this issue with not obtaining an IP Address/Internet access?
