Why Wi-Fi Why?

One iPhone. One Zoom X6 ADSL Wireless Router. My Wi-Fi connection to my iPhone keeps dropping in and out. My laptop and workstation do not have any problems with the router, only my iPhone. I have tried to 'Forget the Network', 'Renew the Lease', reset the router, turn off / on Wi-Fi on the iPhone, etc. Too no avail. If I watch the Wifi settings on the iPhone, I can see the ip settings get set, and then disappear, and then set, and disappear again. What is happening here, and how can I fix it?
I had a similar problem and realized that somehow my DNS was set to 192.168.0.1, my router's IP address. After manually clearing that out it works as advertised.

Does it help any if you turn the phone off and then back on?
Are you using WEP encryption or MAC address filtering on your router?
