I have DLink DI-524 Wireless Router. There is only one WiFi enabled device -
Nokia770. When I said 'not accessible' I meaned that I cannot even ping it
during some time. But the connection manager shows that WiFi signal is good.
That happens very often but randomly. I'll be very appreciated if you can
tell me a way how to trace it. Is there possibility to switch on logging
system on Nokia770?

My first guess would be that your Access Point does not support WLAN

Is it possible to switch off WLAN Power Save Mode?
