When I insert my CF WIFI card, it seems to be recognized and the network icon appears, as expected. I connect to my wireless LAN and everything is fine for about 1 minute. After about 1 minute, the signal strength rapidly decreases until there is none, although it still shows my dhcp assigned info. Has anyone else seen this, or have any clue what I my try to fix it?

If anyone can just point me to some documentation or howtos, that would be great. I have wasted many many hours researching this problem and have come up empty.
