I have one access that reports quite a lot of association failures, around 65 in the last 12 hours. A different access point had 1 association failure, so 66 in total on my network.

Looking through the event log I can see a lot of these

[Failed]XXXXXX | XXXXXXX failed to connected to main bedroom with SSID "XXXXXXXXX" on channel 48 because the Association times out.(1 time in a minute)

Should this amount of association failures be a cause for concern? Especially that 99% of the failures are on one access point.

If so, how can I debug this further?

@snowch

These are typically related to poor signal conditions or high noise/interference in the local area. Short of trying a different channel or adding more APs, not sure what you can do here.
