BATMAN-adv in my 5 tplink routers, the AP interface keeps disconnecting and is 
not stable. The version of batman-adv is 14. Is this version of batman-adv 
unstable?

batman-adv with the COMPAT_VERSION 14 (used in v2011.3.0 <= batman-adv < 
v2014.0.0) is either really old and unsupported (it has known problems which 
fill not be fixed by us anymore).... or you are using batman-adv-legacy [1] 
from Matthias Schiffer. If the latter is the case then please upgrade to the 
latest version from him, test again and then contact him when you need support 
for this version.

But to be honest, batman-adv is not managing the AP interface and thus it 
should have no influence on the AP interface authentication/deauthentication 
behavior or the AP interface state.

Kind regards,
	Sven
