[arm-allstar] Node locks up upon loss of WiFi

[chris novara]

Doug,
I didn’t know the Pi had a heart beat light

The usb radioless heatbeat light slows to half speed and and nothing works. If I turn the WiFi back on, and if it chooses to recover then the heatbeat light flashes faster at normal speed and everything works again.

Most of the time, the node locks up and requires a reboot. I also checked this with a DMK uri using a separate node and Pi and the same thing happens 

Ideas on  how to make this work so we can make this work?
