WiFi working; Invalid misc: is constantly increasing

Post by TechnocracyNow »

Thanks to the Forum, I'm at 5GHz, and Power Mng is OFF: but it still disconnects often
clicking the WiFi GUI off/on resets it OK, but disrupts network monitoring Apps like subscription CAD wares, loosing data and requiring a re-login

iwconfig shows lots of conflict?
Mode:Managed Frequency:5.785 GHz Access Point:
Bit Rate=60 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry short long limit:2 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=32/70 Signal level=-78 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:123 Invalid misc:2360 Missed beacon:0

"Tx excessive" retries and "Invalid misc" seem high, and might indicate an Issue?
I do not have access to the office's Router, just my remote laptop and a PAU09 USB, about 150ft from the router's roof top antenna
I did compile the driver per Panda's instructions which worked great

thoughts?
