Sorry for the slow response.  I did not see your question until just
now.

I faced the same issue.  I had it connecting repeatedly over wifi
only.  What I learned was that the wifi radio was turned off when the
screensaver came on.  I went thru several attempts to get it to work.
I ended up getting a wake lock on the PowerManager, but this was very
expensive in terms of power usage.  I also locked the wifi with the
WifiManager.

This was back in Android 1.0/1.1, and I believe is completely
unnecessary now.  I noticed that Android 1.6 has the ability to keep
the wifi connection in the settings.  I imagine you can
programmatically do this as well - hopefully without acquiring a
wakelock.
