Hey Chris,
Thanks for the explanation. That's quite possible. In any case, I won't be
in this house long enough to care either way. FWIW, it's a gas furnace. BTW
the router doesn't get shut down. Just the wireless craps out. Running wifi
down and wifi up fixes the problem. Another note, it's a lot more likely to
happen when I run it in pure N mode than when I run it in NG.
