Re: [AFMUG] Rocket M2 ethernet link problem.

Your best bet is probably going to be to use a switch that you can force to
10meg... I'd probably use a mikrotik of some sort, but that's mostly just
because I have lots of them sitting around.

[AFMUG] Rocket M2 ethernet link problem.

[Jay Weekley]

We lost a Ubiquiti Rocket M2 during a storm. We replaced it with a "new" 
out of box M2 but it won't link with the 10/100/1000 switch. When the 
techs bypass the switch they get a 10 megabit link but not 100 megabit 
and can access the radio on their laptop but moving the radio back to 
the switch and nothing. For trouble shooting they tried the following 
but nothing gave them a link to the switch:

- swapping the switch with another 10/100/1000 unit.
- swapping patch cords
- replacing the power supply.
- forcing the radio to 10 megabit full.
- resetting and reprogramming the radio.
- re-terminating the lower end of the cable run.
Is this a cable issue? It's a 2 month old Shireen Cat 6 run so I hate to 
think it's bad already. The weather isn't going to make another tower 
climb likely for the next few days so we need to get it to link with the 
switch for a little while. Any suggestions on how to do that? Find an 
old 10/100 switch?
