This ain't a fix and it won't solve the lockup problem, but at least you won't have to pull the power cord from the rn104, every time it lockups:
Access the rn104 through ssh and edit etc/sysctl.conf file. Place the following two lines in the end:
kernel.panic = 1
kernel.panic_on_oops = 1
Save and reboot.
What this will do is to restart the rn104 just before a lockup and since the reboot takes just a few minutes, it's a way to get along until there's a real fix.
