I am having basically the same issue, but wired connection with debian... http://beagleboard.org/project/debian
I will have a connection just fine then after several hours it will stop responding to all network traffic as if it were not there. The LEDs continue to flash as normal with cpu, heartbeat, etc... It's quite annoying. I'm not sure if I want to even continue using it if I cannot create reliable projects.
