Thanks for your post and welcome.
Please use the search function though as your question may have been asked, and answered, before. That way you will have your answer straight away.
The Wi-Fi connection on Windows Phone devices will disconnect when the lockscreen becomes active if the device is not connected to a charger. At that time the Lumia will switch to the cellular data connection when available. In Marketplace you may find an app which will keep the Wi-Fi connection alive when not connected. Please be aware though that keeping an idle Wi-Fi connection alive will use more energy.

The lumia 610 not reconnected to wifi after a while. Only rebooting the router reconnect again.
The solution (and do not ask me why) was changing the wifi router configuration. Within wireless advanced settings: Beacon Interval: 5000. DTIM Interval: 200.
And that's it.
