Don't bloody use WEP, if that's what you're doing - shit's a deprecated platform and is hackable in minutes.
Just check that none of your network is trying to use IPV6 where it can't (esp. if your Dad's machine is Vista).
As someone running a network with a mix of about 15 PCs and 20-odd Macs, I'd recommend setting IP addresses for each machine - my experience is that trying fancy things like Dynamic Addressing is where problems come from.

had a similar problem with intermittent disconections from GF laptop, turned out to be a TV wireless sender was conflicting with the wireless - tried new channels until I got one that didn't interfere. Might be worth checking any other wireless stuff you might have in the building.
