It could be that someone in your area has bought a new router, or telephone that is working on the same frequency as your Linksys. Go into the setup page of the Linksys router and change the channel. I think Linksys is typaicaly set to channel 6, if it is go to Ch.1. If the problem is still there go to Ch 11. If possible, mount your Linksys on the wall high up and away from obstructions.

I turned my airport card off and back on and the signal returned though it is not a strong signal - only one or two of the arced lines appear in the airport indicator in the menu bar, instead of all four, which was the case up till last evening. If I move the computer around the room the signal increases to three arced lines, but I never get a maximum strength signal. The router sits atop the DSL box and the wired connections seem to be just fine. Can the router be going bad? The airport card? Thanks for your help. Harry ps, when I tried to send this message via my airport connection BellSouth refused it and gave me this message: Recipient "macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu" refused on "mail.bellsouth.net" relaying mail to erdos.math.louisville.edu is not allowed So I tried to send it to Lee and received a similar message. Next I sent myself an email to my .Mac account and received a similar message again. Then I turned off my airport card and connected to a port on my router and sent a message to myself and it works just fine.
