With the new unlock codes and firmware are they still killing the EIRP of the gear even in the UNII3 bands? I've been scared to load it on anything... John Woodfield, President Delmarva WiFi Inc. 410-870-WiFi

The older unlock is from a few years ago to unlock DFS on RM5/NanoBridge/NanoStation. Those keys will not unlock PowerBeam/NanoBeam or AC products. NanoBeam/PowerBeamM units will require 5.6.3 + unlock codes generated in the last few months (June 2015). AC products can be unlocked as well, but this is currently only available on 7.2/8.0 beta firmware. R5AC-PTP and PTMP models are limited to bands above 5470MHz due to airPrism filtering. The R5-AC-PRISM will have full U-NII band support. If you need new codes/stickers for PowerBeamM/NanoBeamM or AC products, you can request them here: [ https://www.ubnt.com/fcclabelrequest/ ]( https://www.ubnt.com/fcclabelrequest/ ) Please feel free to email me directly if you have any questions.

You just need to upgrade the firmware to 5.6.3, and enter the unlock key - which you do need to request from UBNT.

I want to know if I can order equipment for a customer install, upgrade to latest released firmware if necessary, and operate it in the 5150-5250 band. That’s all that matters to me. Anything else is your internal process to get to what I need, which is a radio I can buy from my distributor and send out with an installer to do a customer install off a Rocket M5 AP we installed 8 months ago. When I go to the grocery store to buy 2% milk, they don’t tell me the farmer has bought a cow, they either have 2% milk on the shelf or they don’t. Status reports on the feeding and milking of the cow don’t give me something to pour on my cereal.

They've been screwing around with this for about 8 months. Ubiquiti seems to be giving the middle finger to the US market. I am going to have to look at ripping out some APs and PTP links I put up back in April and replacing them with something else. I don't know how to explain to a customer that I can't order equipment for their service because my vendor has their head up their ass, that just reflects badly on me for using their equipment. -----Original Message----- From: [ jaldri...@totalhighspeed.net ]( mailto:jaldri...@totalhighspeed.net ) Sent: Wednesday, December 16, 2015 4:25 AM To: [ af@afmug.com ]( mailto:af@afmug.com ) Subject: Re: [AFMUG] M series NanoBeam/PowerBeam and U-NII-1 Only the world version supports it.

And what is the likelihood any product I bought from a distributor today would support this band out of the box without requesting a key from Ubiquiti? You'd think Ubiquiti would have this somewhere, but I can't find it.
