I have a number of Ubiquiti LOCO M5 units (ar71xx) in use as
"transparent" (simulated layer 2) wireless bridges with the client
devices relayd. I used a CC trunk pull of r42711 because I needed
support for the new "XW" variant of this device (which was not, alas,
present in BB).
I'm seeing very odd behavior. The bridge will work OK for a day or even
two, then fail, requiring a reboot of the client. The LOCO keeps working
just fine, but the device connected to it loses connectivity to the
network. So the LOCO client can still ping the network, but the computer
connected to it cannot. The Ethernet port on the computer shows as still
connected, but, of course, loses its IP address (provided from the
router to which the AP LOCO is connected).
The oddest part is that the computer connected to the LOCO still shows
up in the ARP table.
I have finally been able to reproduce the problem here at home by
setting up a bridge and leaving it alone for a few days. When it failed,
this is what dmesg told me:

ifconfig looks normal, as does ARP.
The only symptom I have been able to find is the "eth0: link up" and
"eth0: link down" messages in the dmesg buffer.
I have been testing this with an older "XM" version of the LOCO and it
does NOT seem to happen - the XM version appears to work perfectly.
I have not tested it with a newer build of OpenWRT.
Any ideas?
