Hi Edwin,
Tried you config and does exhibit your reboot problem. Do you see
kernel panic message in the serial console? If not, I think it is
probably relates to power issues. Check your PSU unit, or check your
WRAP board if it has 8 capacitors?
The system was ethernet only connected at the time so I couldn't see the
kernel messages. Will connect a console and see. This is a new WRAP
with 8 elcos, an 18v power supply directly connected and only 1 SR5 in
it. I would be surprised if this were power related. It's my
understanding the maximum load really only occurs when the radio is
actually txmitting.?
See this: http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/WRAP
I am familiar with the ECN. Thx.

WRAP2C with 0.2 voyage + apt-get upgrade using default sources.list
file. Tried SR5, CM9 and EMP8602 radios with identical results.
Also switched WRAP boards with no change.
If I run ifdown ath0 followed by ifup ath0 the system always reboots.
Anyone have any thoughts on why this is happening? I have other
boards that dont' exhibit this behavior.
Thx,
Edwin

Comment: using "wireless-txpower 26db" does *not* work while "up
iwconfig ath0 txpower 26db" does. ???
