Wireless Adapter Intermittently Losing Connection.

I have been using my wireless adapter for a couple years now but it has started to drop connection for no obvious reason about every 5-10 minutes. I believe this is a device related issue not a network problem hence my posting here.

Changes made around the time the issues began:
New Wireless headset
New Keyboard
New Wireless Adapter (Both behaving the same issue)
Moved into garage with no air conditioning and it was very humid.

I don't believe drivers are an issue
PSU may be but I don't know why it would just now start after years of use.

Any info needed feel free to ask and sorry for not providing enough if that is the case. I am at my wits end with this problem.

I know how to do this and will attempt it now before I go to work. However I doubt this is the problem as we only have one neighbor.

I will go ahead and add an important bit of information that I don't know how I forgot. I am about 100-150ft away and downhill from my router. It did work for 2 years though so I don't believe this is relevant.

Also thank you for your reply :). I will post results when I get home in 10 or so hours.

No I'm sitting about 20ft away from where I formerly sat. The router in question is at my relative's house. (I have permission ) Can you think of anything that would cause a router to behave this way all of a sudden? also let it be known that I have tried using the router I placed up there and the modem that was already there. I have the same problem with both.

The channel changing seemed to do nothing for me.

If you unplug your wireless headset does your wifi kick back in

I noticed that when i plugged it in one time after a good while without any problems it dropped immediately however even with it unplugged it continued to drop after a while.

Were your thoughts on interference or perhaps PSU?

On a side note I must say I am extremely impressed with the speed of your replies thank you both for your assistance thus far. Perusing the link you posted now Maxie

Upgrading my firmware and setting a static IP seem to be the only 2 things on that list that apply to me or that I haven't already tried however I don't believe I can upgrade my firmware since I don't know the model number of my relatives modem. It does seem though that my steam downloads have gone quite a while without any drops so I am going to attempt to play a game and will return to this afterwards with my findings.
