Occcasional WiFi Instability

I'm running BT Hub 3 with Mid Tablet on gingerbread.

I generally disable WiFi before switching off (to standby). Usually I can switch on and connect ok but occasionally I get WiFi error (seen via Settings) and have to do full power-down and restart.

I've added WiFi Fixer app which seems to help but it sometimes reconnects to a different BT WiFi (which may come from my own hub).

Start and stop WiFi are available on the standard desktop widget, or through Settings, or through WiFi Manager widget, and it doesn't seem to make any difference which I use.

The building is a bit foggy, intercom, call system, and digital tvs cause rfi on am/fm/dab. WiFi signal is good, -62 to -58dBm.

Not a big problem, always solved by restart, but it would be nice to know what causes the error condition.
