Hi Larry,

OK, we have just added the option, I'll let you know if it makes a
difference.

There are other messages logged, by the way. I did not mention them
before because they don't look like errors and "switch case not
processed" was my prime suspect, but maybe they would be useful to you:

wlp3s0: AP 94:a7:b7:xx:xx:xx changed bandwidth, new config is 2427 MHz, width 2 (2437/0 MHz)
wlp3s0: AP 94:a7:b7:xx:xx:xx changed bandwidth, new config is 2427 MHz, width 1 (2427/0 MHz)
wlp3s0: AP 94:a7:b7:xx:xx:xx changed bandwidth, new config is 2427 MHz, width 2 (2437/0 MHz)

It oscillates between both values. There doesn't seem to be a
correlation with the failures. The timing doesn't appear to be fully
random, for example these are the timestamps for this morning:

[Sat. sept. 24 09:17:16 2016]
[Sat. sept. 24 09:32:11 2016]
[Sat. sept. 24 10:27:15 2016]
[Sat. sept. 24 10:52:11 2016]
[Sat. sept. 24 12:07:16 2016]
[Sat. sept. 24 12:44:22 2016]

15 minutes, 55 minutes, 25 minutes, 75 minutes... Looks like something
is checking adjusting the configuration every 5 minutes? Last one
doesn't follow the pattern though (37 minutes.)

Great, thanks.

No worry :-)
