HELP!
Any suggestions welcomed, especially if you have experienced something
similar.
Thanks.

Scenario:
I have tried to make my two D-link access points work as wireless
bridges, but because they are different models, I don't believe this
is supported.
The two access points are a DWL-900AP+ and a DWL-2000AP
I currently have the DWL-2000AP as an access point and the DWL-900AP+
as a wireless client, allowing my computers to connect via my
DWL-900AP+ to the DWL-2000AP and then through my gateway.
The problem:
I have noticed on the logs of both devices that they seem to
disconnect and reconnect to each other. 80% of the time, or more, this
is not a problem. However, I have had to reconnect my DWL-900AP+
client to the network broadcasted by the DWL2000AP a number of times
(sometimes once a day). As I have mentioned, I am not sure if it is
related to the disconnections logged on the devices.
Attempted resolutions:
I have tried removing WEP authentication (on both devices)- this did
not make any changes.
I have disabled MAC filtering - this did not make any changes.
I changed the beacon intervals on the two devices - this did not seem
to make any obvious change.
I have changed the channels that my wireless network uses - this did
not make any change.
Here are extracts from the logs for your analysis, each headed by the
device name:
