Here is the latest version of the 'wlanpoke' software
31691, which fixes some logging related bugs and
includes expanded usage information especially helpful for Windows
users. A few options have changed. Please read the manual. As usual your
kind comments are welcome. 

The software has been running for 10 days now, with 2 failed connetions,
one from the AC adapter not conneced, the other unknown, however, the UI
froze accessing Settings |Advanced |Diagnostics |Ethernet (with no cable
attached). The radios seem to continue to play music during a failed
connection and restoration, sometimes with a few second pause. 

The log files have not pinpointed the cause of disconnection so far, but
my analysis has not been exhaustive.

My next step is to instrument a radio located in one of the worst
locations and see what I can see. The setup: 

o A legacy RF spectrum analyzer and webcam combination to capture
frequencies from below to above the 2.4 gHz WiFi band.
o A WiFi sniffer adapter ideally reconfigured as a spectrum analyzer,
and/or, at least listening to an access point.
o A "tap" on the AP ethernet feed into WireShark to capture packets to
and from the AP, with and without other AP clients connected.

This will if anything certainly produce a lot of data. 

I would also like to try a recent version of wpa_supplicant, but my
docker 7.8 build is failing at task 587 of 1140 (ID: 5, …
squeezeos-image.bb, do_configure). Also, examination of the "source for
.63” would be helpful.

Perhaps a forum administrator could make a new troubleshooting topic and
move these related messages into the new topic.
