Hi Sakid

 

Will just selecting internal switch us to using the onboard GPS chip?   Or
do we need to unplug the external puck (which would mean a tower climb)?

 

Thanks

 

Adam

upgrade

 

While this topic has moved to CnPilot SSID issue and CnMaestro, I did want
to chime in on the original GPS thread -

 

Intermittent GPS signal lost - The external puck we ship with the Aps is a
relatively high gain antenna and thus tends to be impacted more from
interference. We have seen cases of this from LTE (second harmonic landing
on top of GPS frequencies). The onboard GPS chip has a lower gain antenna
and in the case where LTE interference was the issue we have seen a
substantial difference when the puck was not used. Unfortunately, it is a
case by case situation and depends on the environment. We are actively
looking to find a better solution in terms of an external puck while keeping
costs low.

 

Lockup during upgrade - We have seen reports of lockup issues during an
upgrade. This is software related and the units are recoverable by our
support team via CLI access. The team will just need remote access.

 

Anything beyond the two issues qualify for a RMA and if you have an unit
exhibiting a different mode of failure, we would be keen to investigate the
unit here.

 

Thanks

Sakid

cnMaestro is capable of managing ePMP, PMP450, and cnPilot R and E series
routers. But they have to be managed in cnMaestro before any config template
can be pushed out to them. If you cnPilot routers are managed by cnMaestro,
then it is possible that someone accidentally pushed a config to those
routers. Best practice is to have a template built for each customer. Then
if this happens again, cnMaestro will report that those routers are 'Out of
Sync'. All you will need to do at that point is resync the config and then
about 5 minutes or less, it will be fixed.

Pushed a template?

Not sure what that means. 

 

At the time, we were fixing 3-ePMP AP's and 3-R200 routers who failed to
upgrade a month ago with the KRACK firmware upgrade.

The 3-R200's were all ePMP AP connections.

 

The 6 R200's that changed to cnPilot SSID were all connected to PMP450 AP's,
which we didn't make any changes to yesterday. 

 

That's the mystery - we were working with ePMP gear via cnMaestro, but
nothing on the PMP450 gear was touched.

 

The timing tells me there's a correlation - with the timing yesterday while
working with ePMP via cnMaestro - but how did or can it

Affect PMP450 subscriber's routers?

Sounds like someone pushed a template from cnMaestro.

Not related, but want to spread the word.if anyone experienced this odd
event.

 

Around 10:30am Central Time yesterday, we started receiving calls "Internet
is not working".

I was one of the 'victims' myself at my home.

Common denominator - all the routers are cnPilot R200 and R200P's.

 

I logged into my home router directly at my home.

SSID in the router changed to "cnPilot".

 

Once I changed the SSID back to the original SSID and re-entered in the
'password' - it worked.

 

We've had 6 customers call in.

Asked them if their router name (SSID) had their original name or did it
change to "cnPilot".

Each confirmed - it said "cnPilot".

We've been able to remotely log in and correct things..but this is STRANGE !

 

Will get a ticket going with Cambium to see what's going on.

 

Thanks for the GPS information, will make notes on it.

I had that issue a few weeks ago where the 3.5.1 GPS upgrade actually locked
up the GPS board and wouldn't even initialize the board to even turn on,
even though the software was reporting that GPS was active. Opened up a
ticket with Cambium and they had to run it up to one of their engineers to
fix the problem. Ended up having to map a Public IP address to the unit and
open up ports 80 for www, 22 Inbound for SSH, and needed to make sure that
22 Outbound was open for the device to be able to communicate with their SCP
server. The engineer SSH'd in to the device and loaded the GPS files to the
unit from their SCP server and it fixed the issue. Just remember to turn off
all of those ports to the unit after they're finished.

We had one ePMP 2000 AP fail like this on the GPS upgrade. We called cambium

Correct. This is NOT a puck problem. The satellites were coming is strong
BEFORE the firmware upgrade. I tried downgrading today but that did not help
either. See the attached pics. Looks like RMA time.

We fought with losing GPS sync on ePMP APs at a couple of sites.  We had
been told to point the pucks south to get the best GPS signal.  There were
several wild goose chases, as it seemed upgrading/downgrading firmware fixed
it, but only sometimes.  In the end, the solution at each of these sites was
to point the GPS puck straight up.  Our best guess was that there was
something overloading the GPS receiver in the direction we had them pointed.
So pointing them up, while not giving them the best signal, minimized
terrestrial interference.  At least that's our theory.

I dont waste time if it needs to be RMA'd :)
