I suspect it is losing the wireless connection and then, to be helpful, changes your IP. It won't get the old one back untill the wireless is back and it does another DHCP.

Sounds like the old channel interference problem. Try a different one. If you can, have a scan about first to see what any neighbours are using and pick something well away from them.
