Did you set in Control Panel / Connectivity / Idle times (second tab) / Packet data and WLAN "Idle time" to "Unlimited"? I have an ASUS WL500GX (Linux inside too) and have no trouble maintaining browsing for tens of minutes. After a while (about one hour UI idle) it drops the connection though, even if I ssh to it every minute from a desktop machine, this is an issue but it looks different from yours.
