I have put together a script to mitigate the radio wireless connectivity
issue. I have been using versions of it for over 2 days now, and all 6
of my radios are connected. It works by restarting the wlan when it
cannot ping the gateway for a period of time. It can be configured to
send incident report messages to a logger on a reliable computer for
analysis. Of course, these are sent only after re-connection, which has
always occurred so far.

If there is any interest, I can put the source on GitHub, or another
service. This runs as an busybox ash script, so that others can examine,
modify, improve, and adapt it to their needs. Mostly, I am interested in
to what extent this software makes the radios more usable. I need more
time listening instead of coding and documenting. It is important that
the radios be enjoyable and not a source of frustration. 

I am hoping others can try the software and provide feedback, hopefully
on this site, if that is appropriate.

There were a lot of last minute changes as a result of the accompanying
software documentation and to do list. Inevitably, this minimally- or
un- tested software has bugs and other failings. Please let me know, and
I will make a corrected version asap. In the meantime, if you can, fix
it yourself, and keep going. 

The software consists of 2 scripts and 3 text documents. The
"manual.txt" document has installation and usage instructions. I am
attaching the "31588" file in this message.

After a period of initial review and revision, perhaps this software can
be introduced to the user forums.
