I have the following bridge configuration:
linux_router-------MT_WDS-ap------MT_WDS-station------lot's of pcs
MT at Celerons 2.3MHz, mainboards with intel (chipset, ethernet, etc.), atheros cards. MT ver. 2.9.17 at both sides.
at AP side:

Done tests without effect:
-changing channels
-switching off turbo mode
-changing atheros cards
-switching off nstreme mode
Interesting observation:
At the time of malfunction, I can see fresh arp records in:
/interface bridge host print
at AP side and Linux router gets a lot of broadcast arp packets at ethernet interface. Sends replays.
Any suggestions? Any ideas? How to test sizes of arp tables in bridges, Is there any limit of connections in newest versions of MT? Troubles with STP, which is off? Is there any tcpdump-like command in MT, which can help find out the point breaking connection?
thanks a lot
