That's what we have now. There is a possibility that one of the bridges is
bad, and I have a replacement on order. One side (always the same unit, mind
you) has to be power-cycled at least every 2 days, and sometimes a few times
per day. Hopefully swapping out the unit will fix our problems.

However, we're looking at alternatives to either replace the wireless link or
provide an alternate path that routes packets when the wireless link fails.
I'm even considering getting a DSL or cable modem connection for the second
building and using a VPN through the Internet for a failover route, if that's
doable.
