Stalls from WAC730

I have three WAC730s running in ensemble mode.  They are running firmware version 3.9.1.0.  One of the devices was showing occasional 40-second transmit/receive stalls, while the others were fine.  I did a factory reset of all devices and reconfigured, but the problem remained. I swapped two of the devices and the problem occurred again on the same device in its new location.  I think I have proven the one device is bad.  How do I confirm that and get it replaced under warranty?

  • I have moved the WAC back to its original spot and could not get any failures even after testing every second for four days.  I am not sure what fixed it, but it wasn't uptime, configuration, or temperature.

  • I ran ping to look for stalls while checking changes in the kernel logs using 'dmesg', and saw this message during stalls.  Does this help?  It is an Apple device, though I am monitoring from a non-Apple laptop.
