[WriteLog] Network reliability

In recent years I've used WL MS and M2 but have been troubled by periodic network failure and half hearted recovery.  Having never been able to nail down the cause, I have assumed the culprit to be RF triggered by some combination of transmission frequency and antenna direction.  UNTIL that is for CQWW Phone this year some visiting ops used Win-Test, which suffered no such network (or any other) failures during the whole event.

When I enquired about their choice of WT they said it was based upon its overall reliability and in particular "rock solid" networking.

It appears my WL network failures are much more to do with WL than RF and may be a set-up issue. Could someone who is running WL in a multi-op, networked environment and finding it to be robust, please reveal the secrets of their particular network set-up.

Many thanks.
