Hi Nate, I am operating 13 BaseStation sites, AP-1000 w/ SA-4400 v4.31 
providing service to a mixture of RG-1100 v4.27/v4.31 + Windows & Linux 
Clients.  I have never seen the exact kind of problem you are describing.

If the problem is configuration related, it would help to know how your Base 
Station configuration is different.  Could you post a config file so we can 
have a look at it?

My $0.02 worth of advice: 99.9% of all problems revolve around an N-Type 
connector somewhere.
