I am sick tired of Airport Extreme Base Station: It gets disconnected from time to time.. I checked the network preference and it has green light and says the Airport is connected and I also checked Airport Admin Utlity- it says it's connected. I dont get it?? Why does it not working sometimes????

I had to put the ethernet wire --direct connection to my pbg4 for ahwile then move it back to airport and it works fine??? Why's that?

Any help or advice would be great!

Have you updated all your software on Software Update? Have you updated the firmware on the base station here:

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120305

Also, you might have to download this seperately, I did:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120325

Any difference in the connection?

Yes, I do have Firmware 5.3 but I'm not sure about the Airport update 3.3.1? So I downloaded it anyway.. and restarted the computer- So see what will happens next.. I mean I'm on Airport now.. working fine now.. i hope this wont happens again in the future.
