Many AP's have this built in. Usually the reset is quick enough that no one notices. Until the error correction technology improves, you'll have to live with that solution no matter who you use.

Is this just a workaround that watches for a connection to the AP and reboots the unit when it disappears? If so, that's not much of a solution. Has it actually worked for anyone? The real question here is what has happened to my equipment to make it fail (twice today now) all the time when it ran for almost a month without one single hiccup when I first installed it ? Anyone? The new firware is loaded. I wish there was a progress bar during the upgrade. I was really beginning to worry.
