John,

You are losing association.  Thats plane and simple.  The ABO's do that
crap if they lose association and can't re-associate quickly (they change
their ESSID to garbage)..  Thats why we started burning in the AP's name
as the default config..  But as far as I know.. ABO's going like this do
not affect the AP's (We use Cisco and we didn't see this crap).

What Pre-amble length are you using.  On the Cisco's (per AB's
suggestion) we switched to long and it helped... but the fact that you
WET-11 light is blinking indicates I think you are having signal issues.

Scott
