Ive had a similar issue with wireless on the actiontech as well. I ordered a directional high gain antenna and got an improvement but it does still fluctuate.
I have tried different channels to no avail too It fluctuates same as pushead describes. Its likely a firmware issue. I even tested with my dir-655 on the same channels right beside the actiontech location and it does not fluctuate like the actiontec does. I did that test to confirm if it could have been RF interference from some other device near by.
pushead as others described you could put another router in for your wifi access, I was doing this for sometime with my dlink but since pulled it out of service to clean up my wiring mess around the house. I had both the actiontec and the dir-655 running the same wireless network in bridge mode and gave me greatly improved wifi coverage and much more reliable connectivity.
Another idea is to reposition your antenna and see if that helps.
