I am also experiencing this issue on Lucid/10.04. My connection drops after ~4 minutes and it prompts me to reconnect. I have lots of other devices (phones, Windows laptop and 2 other Ubuntu 9.10 laptops that all work seamlessly with my wireless network. I also dual-boot the affected machine and it works seamlessly with the same network with OSX.

I can confirm that using wicd made my issue go away.
