I thought the XM versus XW was just a hardware thing. Is it possible to update a device that is on XM with XW?

I am not 100% sure on this, but I have only been loading XM firmware with NSM, Rockets and NanoBridges. For anything newer, like the NanoBeams we have been using the XW firmware.

I have seen pretty decent improvements on throughput in some of my rocket APs since we did these software upgrades. I don't have any PowerBridges in service anymore, so I can't speak for those.

    I know that was some discussion on this and some people said that
    mixing firmware was a problem, even with 5.5.10.  I hadn’t seen
    the problem until about a week ago.  Had  PowerBridge talking to a
    Powerbeam talking to a PowerBridge which then link to a another
    PTP using NS5’s and an AP on that end.  It seemed to work great
    for several months.  A week ago, the AP at the end started pushing
    through 10-20 pings and then dropping 3 pings.  After finding
    nothing, we pull the PowerBridge and replaced it with a
    PowerBeam.  Problem solved.

    On the other hand, we have a boatload of NS5M’s, some with XW
    firmware connected to XM Rockets.  No problems so far.
