Alan,

I have tested the signal strength possibility and that is not the issue.  

Either the client or the AP is causing the disconnect / reconnect.  This quite frequently results in the user being disconnected from various applications (but not always).

  They may be losing connectivity to the NAS (i.e. wireless problems).
When that happens, they re-authenticate.

  Then use TTLS.  TLS requires a client cert.
