Was yours acting up before the issue? This AP had been slowly loosing TX power for about 2 months. On 1/2/2024 12:38 PM, Steve Jones wrote: I had this issue once. I dont recall an RMA.

I had this issue once. I dont recall an RMA. It probably ended up deployed again close by in case of further issue then forgot about. I do remember loading multiple firmwares in both banks multiple times to make sure nothing collapsed On Thu, Dec 21, 2023 at 4:55 PM Nate Burke wrote: > I had an EPMP3000 AP on a tower that died after a web page initiated > reboot.

[AFMUG] EPMP 3000 AP losing firmware
I had an EPMP3000 AP on a tower that died after a web page initiated reboot. I got it swapped out and when I put it on the bench, accessing on 169.254.1.1 loaded a page saying to 'Load Firmware' With a big disclaimer saying 'No Firmware validation done, make sure you load a proper image' I loaded the 4.6.1 firmware on it, and it appears to be booting normally now. I'm concerned to deploy it again, since 'something' happened, but why wouldn't it have loaded the backup firmware if the primary was corrupted? Anyone run into this before? The AP was acting up which is what prompted the initial reboot. 2 Sm's next to each other on a roof, one SM had 70% packet loss, the Other SM had 0% packet loss. Only thing that hadn't been rebooted yet was the AP. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
