It's a Linksys WRT54GS with the most up to date firmware.  I'm using a white 
mid 2010 stocked no customizations 13 inch macbook running OSX 10.7.3 with the 
latest update.  This is actually Lion Server, but even before I installed 
server and just had regular Lion without the extra server sided extentions, I 
still had the issue, so that isn't what's crippling it.

I'm using WPA 2 A E S 11 for the incription type on my router.
