Zaphod is right, simply restart your wireless adapter to connect again.
I would like to add that the problem persists in Broadcom cards also.
But a simple fix can lessen the frequency of disconnects that is to turn
off power saving mode in broadcom wireless cards. Check your adapter id
using 'ifconfig' and use command:
sudo iwconfig eth1 power off
This makes WIFIi more stable but the real problem lies in network
manager as it can't handle the load well and disconnects. I believe
there is another side to coin also that is 'power saving' in gnome..
