First, Thank you everyone who has been developing open80211s and thank you
for the support you provide.

We have had some time do some extensive testing of the latest 3.5 r6 kernel
with the patches (Thanks Chun-Yeow)
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg96407.html
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg96719.html

Our layout is as follows.
5 Nodes running ath5k with Atheros Communications Inc. AR5413 802.11abg
cards
We have 4 of the units in fixed locations approx. 100' apart in a meshed
configuration
signal is -52 to -54 between all units.

We are running on channel 149 for the mesh.

If we take the fifth node and move it out of the area (walking) to a signal
strength of -78 or worse we have major problems.

3 out of the 5 routers reboot (including the moving unit) and then come
back online.
This is consistent and came be reproduced every time.

We have tried with and without AUTHSAE
We have tried different channels 1-11, 36-48 and 149-165
Still the same issue 3 out of the 5 reboot.

Note: Its not the same units rebooting every time.  It varies based on
which direction the (walking) node is going.

I can not find anything in the logs to show what is happening when the
boxes reboot. Shows no errors.

I have tried this with the ath9k drivers and they do not create this
issue.  Seems like a ath5k issue.

I noticed a post https://github.com/cozybit/open80211s/issues/2 which seems
to be critical. Not sure if its the same issue or not.

If there is any testing or patches you would like me to try please let me
know.

Thanks for your help.

Fred.
