Comment (by anonymous):
Sorry for reviving this, but I've had the same issue and I've come up with
a workaround that works for me with no manual intervention. I run the
following script in the background by calling it from /etc/rc.local:
{{{
/root/wifi-watchdog.sh &
}}}
The /root/wifi-watchdog.sh script:
{{{
#!/bin/sh
AP_DEV=wlan0-1
while ( true ) ; do
if !( iw dev $AP_DEV info | grep -q ssid ) ; then
logger wifi-watchdog: Wifi in trouble, to the rescue...
ifconfig $AP_DEV down;
ifconfig $AP_DEV up;
fi
sleep 5
done
}}}
Change the AP_DEV variable to the interface which is in access point mode.
With one client mode interface and one access point interface, that should
be wlan0-1, but check to make sure.
This script is absolutely not meant to be a solution. It is in fact a
dirty, dirty hack. But it works for me, so if you want to give it a go,
don't blame me if it sets your router on fire.
