@Christiansen: Already tried that with no effect.

I installed the madwifi drivers from "Hardware Drivers" and rebooted and the adapter was showing in iwconfig, but could not connect either through the Network Manager applet or manually with iwconfig. BUT...removing madwifi and rebooting again gained some results.
I can now connect to my AP but it is very intermittent and drops out as above but can browse for about 2 minutes now! Getting there...
