The DHCPRELEASE is definitely a message sent by the AP. So it looks like that the AP decided to drop the connection all by itself, I don't know why.

Vladimir,
I tested my AP once again and it dropped the wireless connection after about 5 minutes. Watching the connection monitor, the channel changed occasionally from 11 to 10 and back, suggesting some frequency drift, but that may have just been a glitch in the monitor program.
The Wisp-Dist log shows the following for the event.
Apr 24 14:54:27 fpcwireless dhcpd: DHCPRELEASE of 192.168.5.2 from 00:02:6f:05:58:fe via netcs0 (found) Apr 24 14:54:27 fpcwireless kernel: handle_ap_item - addr3(BSSID)=27:72:af:75:cb:ec not own MAC
I do not know why it dropped the dhcp assignment for the connection. The lease time is the default 604800.
The entry following the DHCPRELEASE is strange, but I suspect that it is related to signal interference from another source. The other AP in the building is running on channel 6 while the Soekris AP is running Wisp-Dist is on channel 11. They use completely different ESSIDs. I don't have the other mac address of the other AP handy, but will check it out later today.
