I have had no luck with any small wireless dongle other than the ASUS N10 dongle. I've been able to keep relatively stable connections with it. Sometimes prolonged periods of intense activity like upgrading the system can seem to cause it to go off to la-la land never to be heard from again until after a reboot. That happens a lot less these days. Linux wifi has so many moving parts that it's hard to figure out which part blew up in your face. I'll say though I have tried various other wifi dongles that were recommended for BBB and all suffer exactly the fate you describe. at some point the network connection is cut and never returns until a complete reboot. So I just stick with these as they work out of the box with Arch Linux.
