Bob-
Yes, the exact configuration would be useful, but there's the rub.
The configuration is pretty simple: it's the (current) final release of
OpenWRT "Attitude Adjustment" running on a Ubiquiti PicoStation 2HP.
There's an Ethernet port and two VAPs: one a regular Access Point, one a
mesh access point.
I have this configuration running in four different places (including my
own home), and it fails in two. In the other two locations, it runs
perfectly - "free" always reports the same number (more or less).
In the two places it is failing, it is only the "stand-alone" node that
fails - the one connected to the router works fine.
On the node to which I have ssh access, I can see that it takes about
7-8 hours to fail. There is very little WiFi interference and no one
connects to it (it's out on the back of a barn, strictly for stability
testing).
On the other node (it's in a different network in a different location,
BTW), it is in a very congested area, with many WiFi APs around, and it
is being heavily used.
This is the wireless config in OpenWRT:
config wifi-device radio0
option type mac80211
option channel 10
option phy phy0
option hwmode 11g
config wifi-iface
option device radio0
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid 'AccessPoint'
option encryption mixed-psk
option key Password
config wifi-iface
option device radio0
option network lan
option mode mesh
option disabled 1
option mesh_id mesh_id
I'm not quite sure where to go with this from here. If I could get it to
fail consistently here, I could probably come up with a way to debug it
(serial port, etc.) But it only fails in places where I can't get my
hands on the radios.
I am REALLY open to ideas here...
Thanks,
