Hi Emmanuel. Original submitter here:
Unfortunately I haven't had time to try to capture packets during failure, but I'm open to doing that (hopefully today or tomorrow). Here are the details for my AP: Overview: This is one of the standard ATT Uverse Modems. No specific config changes (besides password), otherwise stock standard. Manufacturer: Pace Plc Model: 3800HGV-B Software Version: 6.9.1.42-plus.tm Wireless Mode: 802.11b/g Auth Type: WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES) DTIM Period: 1 Rate: 54Mbps Others in thread who are affected, please post an overview of your AP so that a profile can be built.
