Had a couple of hours on it and have all 5 units working. I'm not sure I fully understand the issue, but this is what I noticed:
I have a wifi router connected to my laptop, that I'm using as a separate AP for the Lopy. If I disconnect the ethernet from the Laptop, this may remove the problem.
So, I've wondering if there is RF EMC interference in the cables between the router/laptop/lopy.
Also if I then reboot the Lopy the problem disappears.
