With diversity antennas, does the WAP11 continiously transmit and recieve on both antennas or does it switch between antennnas, choosing the "best" antenna for a particular sub-second period? I thought it was the latter.

Beacon interval: 70 I was told that it would be better not to use diversity antenna as the wap would divide it's power in both of them. I use a 12 dbi omni in one side and a 16 dbi VAGI in the other together with their own 2.2 rubber duck antennas. Finally: after your wap stopped working did yout test them again while each one next to other ? this would ensure they're not damaged and that maybe your noise conditions has increased.
