I forgot to mention the WISP & laptop equipment involved so I'll list it
here:
- WISP AP = Compex Systems WLM54AGP23, 23dBm TX, 802.11b -92 dBm@1Mbps RX
- My radio = 19dBi planar & 28dBm (630mw) radio 1.5 miles away LOS
- My laptop = Lenovo X61 Ubuntu, internal -6dBm antenna & 15dBm (30mW)
radio with sensitivity of -90dBm@6Mbps

Given this equipment, what tests can I run to figure out WHY a minor
change in the radio's AirOS settings causes a disassociation from the
access point - which lasts for hours - and finally corrects itself over
time?
