W8980 dropping wireless connection
I bought one of these units a bit over two weeks ago. Quick and easy to get setup, but I've been plagued with wifi dropouts. Only for a few seconds and devices reconnect quickly. It's annoying that this is happening, and with a high school student and two uni students in the house, far from ideal for their study.
I've locked down everything I can - channel hard set, channel widths hard set, only supporting 'n' after upgrading a 'g' client bridge....all to no avail.
I've also noticed that 5Ghz band seems fine (I only have a couple of devices on it), but problems seem to be on the 2.4 frequency (which happens to be where most of the devices are).
Is this a common problem? Can I get the unit replaced under warranty through my reseller?
Thanks.
