I'm having frequent disconnection problems with wireless on my WRT54GS.

Using DD-WRT 23a SP1 on WRT54GS v1.2.

TX set to 40mW with active cooling below the router.

Frequently get drops (SSID drops out of range but notebook was not moved) and there was no human movement on the whole floor of the house. Sometimes, the connection simply drops while the SSID still can be found, and it'll take a while (longer then usual) to reconnect. (Using hardwired LAN connection from the router is problem free at that time).

Used with Centrino notebooks w/ 2200BG Intel ProSET wireless.

Anybody have simillar experiences? (PS: i dropped the TXp to default 28mw but still the same problem).

prasys,

thanks! excellent help, did some reading on ACK and instead of disabling it completely set it to an effective range, say 100m to cover my house. Works like a charm now.

And to think it's default was 20000 = 20km

Took a look at your "status" page you posted up here and noticed that you were running WDS with an Airport. When I return to the States, I have to get a ~200m link up and running with no LOS, through a block of apartments to another(mine) from campus.

I already have 2 WRT54G V4s stockpiled over there, with plans to pick up another.

HWZ has some useful pages on the WRT54g/gs here -> http://forums.hardwarezone.com/showthread.php?t=998127

Any tips on WDS or should I be messing with a client/client bridge on the APs?
