If you mean radio strength...it can happen when using wrong power supply.
If you mean connectivity, than it can happen if the router has limited NAT table for example.
Other than that need to get your exact model + exact problem description.
thanks

well, try debug it. Like when you have wireless problem, connect your laptop with cable to the router and see if it keeps working (internet and such), go to management interface and see if there is anything in the logs. Try also find and upgrade firmware.
I am not familiar with siemens wireless so can't tell you for sure where is the problem. Also try working with router without any p2p downloads. May be it fills its NAT table and router goes crazy (that you can check by direct cable connection)
hope this helps
