Fails to connect, forgets password ...

I have a 2G Touch with 3.1.1 software. This problem was happening before the 3.1.1 upgrade, but does seem to be happening a bit more frequently since.

There are several Wi-Fi networks I connect to regularly, but have a problem with only one. That is the one at my office, which uses an older D-Link router. It's not unusual to have to try a couple of times before connecting, and I blame the router for that. However, sometimes when it fails to connect, the iPod then seems to forget the password. That is, the connection fails and when I try again, it asks for the password. That works, and it continues to work on subsequent tries until a day or two later when it fails and demands the password again.

Not much I can do about the router, but it seems to me that the iPod should remember the password, even after a failed connection. I've tried resetting the network settings, restarting the iPod, forgetting the network and re-entering it. Nothing improves the problem.

Any suggestions?
