I want to followup on this discussion in case it’s useful to anyone else. As far as I’m concerned, the issue is resolved and I’d like to thank Raghu for taking this on. Our back-n-forth was done via PM, so the details won’t show up here. Here’s my synopsis:
I have a raspberry pi witth a wifi client experiencing frequent syslog complaints of “wlan0: carrier lost”. Each instance of the error was precipitated by a 802.11 disassociation logged in the WAC510.
Raghu inspected my WAC510 logs and suggested that I turn off Band Steering, which I was using on both 2.5 and 5.0 radios. I turned that feature off and ran a short test and confirmed that the “carrier lost” symptoms were greatly reduced. And I followed up with a 6 hour test and have seen no disassociations.
I consider this solved. Thanks Raghu.
