Eric, We see the random resets as well. Occurs about 1 every other week on one or another customer's radios. Appears to happen during high interference issues. Only way to correct is to burn in default. SB: ANY WAY TO OVERCOME NOT SETTING DEFAULT BY RADIO SIDE? Would love to do this from NOC instead of performing 100 truck rolls. (My tech's keep forgetting to do it at time of install... you know... after antenna install, cable run, jack mounting, and then SB device set-up, they are so excited to get the heck out of there they forget.....) Lastly, you will have always have overhead traffic for the devices to manage themselves. we see even with a customer's PC and router off about 2000 packets/minute being passed from the AP to the CPE, and like 100 packets per minute being passed between from the CPE to the AP. (thats beacons, RTS's from other radios, acknowledgments, etc.... works out to like 17Kbps down constant, and 800 bps up. (We have RTS settings quite low on these units, thus the high overhead values.) This is why rule of thumb that 40% of bandwidth is used by overhead on 802.11b. (i.e. if you get 11 Mbps connection, expect max. through put to be like 6.5 Mbps, on a 5.5 Mbps connection, expect it to be 3 Mbps, etc, etc...) By the way, we have broadcast traffic filtered, so this is true radio control communication occurring, no packet seeks (except we do ping the units every 5 minutes with 20 packets, and you have the SNMP data gathering "gets", so there is network management in these numbers as well...
