I scheduled my router to reset everyday at 3AM to prevent wireless dropping issues. It reduced the frequency but some minutes ago it occured again. But there's no anything related in logread or dmesg. Below the last entries on logread before the wireless have dropped:
TP-Link TL-WDR4300 Version 1.0,Firmware :Gargoyle Version 1.6.1 TP-Link TL-WR1043ND Version 1.0,Firmware :Gargoyle Version 1.6.1 OS : Linux Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Here's another datapoint for you Eric. I updated my three TP Link routers to 1.5.10 a few days ago.
My 1043ND updated no problem. This is my main router. Wireless access is MAC Address limited to only the other two routers in my house.
My 841ND v7 configured as a non-repeating bridge updated no problem.
My 841ND v5 configured as a repeating bridge would not update. It worked as a bridge, but I could not get it to be a repeater. My solution was to roll that one back to 1.5.8 (I never did the .9 update, so I went back to what I knew worked). It works fine as a repeating bridge with 1.5.8.
I do not know if the v7 would have worked as a repeater, I did not try.
I have no issues with wireless dropping on my tp-link 1043nd v 1.10. I'm using wifi scheduler, witch i find very usefull to shutdown wireless at night and when i'm on the work.
Everyting running smooth except openvpn

Good for you. Im currently having UPnP/NAT-PMP disabled. Trying to see if UPnP was the cause of my problems.
When i thought i solved the problem with wireless i had a surprise today. Router kicked all the users including me and i couldn't connect on it. Is was still broadcasting SSID. Hard reset solved the problem.
