I've got one that's ~20 feet (line of sight, even!) from the AP and it
was DC'ing all the time.  I'm thinking that there's just too much
interference coming from the cable box, TV, etc. to actually keep a
sustainable wifi connection going.  I got lucky and it was really easy
to just put a run thru the basement back over to the AP (i.e. under the
floor, and back up).
