I had a 5GHz SM showing ADI communication failure in red. I sent a
screenshot. The other was a 3.6GHz SM and showed only RF calibration
failure. They wanted to have Tier 3 support get access to it to
recalibrate. I explained that the event log was showing ADI forced reset
invoked, and it watchdog reset about every minute or two, just like the
5GHz radio. After that, they accepted it for RMA, without the
recalibration. Those definitely showed issues on the bench immediately
at boot. I have about 30 more SMs in stock ready to be deployed and I
hope there are no more of these.

I've had one so far, it ran for awhile at a customer then started
rebooting for a few hours, run for a few hours, reboot for a few more
hours. Cambium wanted a screenshot, evidently the event log wasn't
good enough. I ran the bad one at the office for a few hours and it
didn't screw up.
They had me send it to the repair place in Elgin. What do you want to
bet they will say no trouble found and send it back?

3 more this weekend.
One lucky customer is on the 4th radio. We found her a 6 month old
radio for the next attempt at repairing it.

Knock on wood.. we've had two confirmed (already RMA'd) and maybe a
3rd out of 60-70 so far. It sucks, but shit happens.

I'm halfway through a box of 25 with 4 failures so far, all
requiring truck rolls and embarrassment. I'm going to hold off on
sending in the box of dead radios as we will probably have another
one tomorrow. Nice to know they are working on it....

3 failed so far out of a 25 pack - no six Sigma here.
Dear Cambium - what’s going on, and how many more of these can we
expect to fall over dead?
Not cool when it happens to the same new customer twice in 10 days.
Makes us look like idiots.
