I'm having an issue with wiced_network_up returning WICED error after about 30 minutes.  I'm connecting to the wifi network, sending a ping, and then disconnecting.  I've attached an example program to demonstrate the issue.  I'm running SDK 3.5.1 on the BCM4343W Avenet module.  Does anyone know of any solutions?  Can you reset the broadcom module without resetting the MCU?

Thanks,

-Rob

I just recently found the issue.  There was a small short on the board which was overloading the board's power supply causing the voltage to drop when the wifi module was transmitting.  It wasn't quite enough to cause the system to reset, but it was causing the system to become unstable...

Thanks,
