Seems like a questionable practice shipping product with beta firmware, unless the product itself is still in beta.
For that matter, the whole “release candidate” designation is confusing. Is that like “presumptive nominee”? It’s either released, or it’s beta.

It's odd they're shipping these with an RC though... one of our guys asked me yesterday if he needed to update one to 2.6.2 since it was already 2.6.2RC.

I am working on scheduling some upgrades to take place on Sunday evening. All of our current gear is 2.6.2. Have you loaded 3.0-RC27 on any of them yet?

Don’t let them leave the shop with that firmware. It’s missing about 40 freqs in the DFS ranges. Tech spent an hour service call figuring it out after hours. Just upgrade the firmware to 2.62 even though it’s a 2.62RC from the factory. Just fyi to anyone trusting Cambium before the truck rolls.
