Just discovered something. Since my issue returned after an absence during a power hit, I wondered if it could be a bug in how power-saving features affect the wireless device. After running "iwconfig wlan0 power off", I have not had any more disconnections. I'm wondering if the power management features are causing the wireless device to reduce the transmitter power or be more aggressive in looking to see if a better access point is available.
