Re: [WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
Two quick points, I have seen something like this due to browser.what browser are u usingdid you try a different browser. Also, 5.2.1 full has been released...try that as well...

I was looking at network traffic with Wireshark and noticed CDP - Cisco Discovery Protocol (UBNT calls it extra reporting) traffic coming from one of the NS5M's on my back haul. I had turned that off. I browsed into the unit in question and sure enough enable extra reporting was checked again! I unchecked the enable extra reporting box and apply the settings many times and it kept coming back checked. It was a long process to get the settings how I wanted but I finally got everything the way I wanted it, though no matter what I do the POE passthrough box remains unchecked even though I checked it and applied the settings many times. It is passing POE so I'm just disregarding the checkbox and hoping it's just a glitch in the UI. Long version: I took notes through this process for my own reference and to make sure I could tell the story accurately to UBNT. (Through the process below I tired various browsers to make sure the problem wasn't due to some fluke in one of the browsers) Using Wireshark I noticed extended reporting coming from an NS5M which is running Station WDS (one end of a back haul), firmware is 5.2.1 RC2. In NS5M web interface I turned off extended reporting. Hit change then test but after unit rebooted it wasn't showing itself to be in the test mode (and the associated count down to restore settings was not showing) and extended reporting checkbox was back on. Unchecked extended reporting (again) and clicked apply this time instead of test. Unit went off line and the BulletM2 (my point of access) on the NS5M's secondary port never came back up. (I was accessing the NS5M through the BulletM2 at this point) Had to power cycle NS5M to revive the NS5M/BulletM2 combo. Came back up with extra reporting checkbox checked. Downgraded to 5.2. The combo came back up for a minute, then dropped off line again, then came back up and stayed up. Extra reporting checkbox still checked. Decided to try changing another setting. I picked the lock to AP MAC and put in the MAC address of the other end of the back haul. Hit test, the unit rebooted and came back with the log to AP MAC field blank. Downgraded to 5.0.1, then upgraded back up to 5.2.1 Connected via ethernet and reset to defaults. Start programming the unit. Manually set ack timing. Setting stuck. Turned on pass through, after reboot checkbox was unchecked. Tried it again, again the box is unchecked after the unit reboots. Restored to defaults again. Tried disabling extra reporting and turning off ack timeout auto adjust and turning on POE passthrough all at the same time. None of the settings stuck (according to the web interface but the Bullet M2 on the secondary port was up. Set the necessary changes on the wireless and network tabs. All settings stuck without a hitch. Returned to Advanced and set POE ack timeout auto adjust off and disabled extra reporting off (without changing POE passthrough - it was unchecked but passing through) and those settings stuck. The unit's behavior is as I want it. I was even able to lock the unit to the AP's MAC address. The only discrepancy is the POE passthrough is unchecked even though it's passing through (as I want it to). I'm thinking about TFTP'ing in the 5.2.1 RC2 firmware since it sounds like TFTP'ing the firmware in rewrites/partitions more of the unit's memory than upgrading the firmware via the web interface. I'll post this to the UBNT forum tomorrow. Greg On Sep 25, 2010, at 11:08 PM, Robert West wrote: Nope. No dice. Played with it after I took it down. Did a hard reset then.

Yeah, I've seen funny browser stuff too, so I tried all three below. Browsers: Safari 5.0.2, Firefox 3.6.10, Chrome 6.0.427.63. (all under Mac OS X) I have Win XP and 7 so I could try IE if you think that would help. I kind of doubt it after already trying 3. I'll try 5.2.1. Thanks!

Re: [WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
Same browser as when I configured it and I can still turn the secondary ether PoE on and off on other Nano5Ms. Am running 5.2.1, yeah, even downgraded. Posts on UBNT forums are building on this issue. After 20 days or so it will burn out. Here is what I came up with after I took it down. This is part of my post to the forums . I had an AirGrid set on a 15 foot mast out at the road for a customer because of trees. Ran an underground line of double shielded, flooded Cat5, direct bury, with ground wire. Everything grounded and working fine. His neighbor wanted service so I swapped the grid out with a Nano5M, plugged a Nano Loco into the secondary ether pointing to another nano in the neighbors window. Ran just fine for almost a month THEN crazy issues. Neighbor lost connection but the customer hard wired into the Nano5m was just fine. Thought it might be a bad crimp on the jumper, replaced it, it fired up. Was a mess ever since. Power on, off, on, off. Then I saw the PoE Pass-through checkbox empty. Checked it, applied, box again empty. Couldn't get it to stick. Did a truck roll, power to NanoL gone. Took the Nano5M down and brought to the shop. Bench tested. No secondary power, no check in the box. Diud a hard reset. Still nothing. Downgraded firmware, another hard reset. Secondary Port now ON! BUT. Checkbox still empty. Checked the box, applied. Check still in the box. Remove check, apply, check gone, BUT power still on at the secondary port! I can not turn off the power to the secondary power! Upgraded firmware Hard reset. Still on no matter is box is checked or not. Now for the REST of the story and my guess on this.. The cable run to the pole is 100 feet. I used the 15V UBNT power injector that came with the Nano5M. After the install I checked the operation and all was as smooth as silk. Quick booting, fast throughput on both units. When I took the unit down and got it operating I was also using a 15v UBNT power injector however my cable length on the bench was only 8 feet. I watched the lights on the nano and also watched how long UBNT Discovery utility took to pick it up. Long. It looked like it was struggling to connect to the wired lan. After it came up I plugged a bullet into the secondary port and power cycled it all. Long struggle to connect to the wired lan. Sometimes Discovery would see it, sometimes not. So.. Pulled out an OLD 3Com 24V 3A power injector and plugged the setup into it. Fired up FAST! Fired up every time and would not fail. Still unable to turn off the power to the secondary port so I reinstalled the unit at the customer site but with the 24V 3A power injector. It's been running almost 24 hours now and I'm able to talk to everything connected to it remotely and all pings are perfect. My guess.. It was under powered. It may have not had enough power to keep the secondary port powered, damaged the switching circuit and is now stuck giving power to the secondary port with no way of turning it off. Possible constant fluttering of the circuit on and off burned it out. With it being stuck on, it's good for now. I wouldn't mind not having an option to turn off the Poe, it can always be on as far as I'm concerned. Or if nothing else, have it default to on in case of a failure of the switching circuit..

Re: [WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
Nope. No dice. Played with it after I took it down. Did a hard reset then. PoE is always on no matter what the checkbox says. Before reset, PoE did not work no matter which port power was put into. Downgraded, upgraded, just can't turn that sucker off. Maybe I need to show it a picture of my first wife..!

Re: [WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
I had some trouble with an NS5M running 5.2.1 RC2. Short version: I had some weirdness tonight. I was looking at network traffic with Wireshark and noticed CDP - Cisco Discovery Protocol (UBNT calls it extra reporting) traffic coming from one of the NS5M's on my back haul. I had turned that off. I browsed into the unit in question and sure enough enable extra reporting was checked again! I unchecked the enable extra reporting box and apply the settings many times and it kept coming back checked. It was a long process to get the settings how I wanted but I finally got everything the way I wanted it, though no matter what I do the POE passthrough box remains unchecked even though I checked it and applied the settings many times. It is passing POE so I'm just disregarding the checkbox and hoping it's just a glitch in the UI. Long version: I took notes through this process for my own reference and to make sure I could tell the story accurately to UBNT. (Through the process below I tired various browsers to make sure the problem wasn't due to some fluke in one of the browsers) Using Wireshark I noticed extended reporting coming from an NS5M which is running Station WDS (one end of a back haul), firmware is 5.2.1 RC2. In NS5M web interface I turned off extended reporting. Hit change then test but after unit rebooted it wasn't showing itself to be in the test mode (and the associated count down to restore settings was not showing) and extended reporting checkbox was back on. Unchecked extended reporting (again) and clicked apply this time instead of test. Unit went off line and the BulletM2 (my point of access) on the NS5M's secondary port never came back up. (I was accessing the NS5M through the BulletM2 at this point) Had to power cycle NS5M to revive the NS5M/BulletM2 combo. Came back up with extra reporting checkbox checked. Downgraded to 5.2. The combo came back up for a minute, then dropped off line again, then came back up and stayed up. Extra reporting checkbox still checked. Decided to try changing another setting. I picked the lock to AP MAC and put in the MAC address of the other end of the back haul. Hit test, the unit rebooted and came back with the log to AP MAC field blank. Downgraded to 5.0.1, then upgraded back up to 5.2.1 Connected via ethernet and reset to defaults. Start programming the unit. Manually set ack timing. Setting stuck. Turned on pass through, after reboot checkbox was unchecked. Tried it again, again the box is unchecked after the unit reboots. Restored to defaults again. Tried disabling extra reporting and turning off ack timeout auto adjust and turning on POE passthrough all at the same time. None of the settings stuck (according to the web interface but the Bullet M2 on the secondary port was up. Set the necessary changes on the wireless and network tabs. All settings stuck without a hitch. Returned to Advanced and set POE ack timeout auto adjust off and disabled extra reporting off (without changing POE passthrough - it was unchecked but passing through) and those settings stuck. The unit's behavior is as I want it. I was even able to lock the unit to the AP's MAC address. The only discrepancy is the POE passthrough is unchecked even though it's passing through (as I want it to). I'm thinking about TFTP'ing in the 5.2.1 RC2 firmware since it sounds like TFTP'ing the firmware in rewrites/partitions more of the unit's memory than upgrading the firmware via the web interface.

I had some trouble with an NS5M running 5.2.1 RC2. Short version: I had some weirdness tonight. I was looking at network traffic with Wireshark and noticed CDP - Cisco Discovery Protocol (UBNT calls it extra reporting) traffic coming from one of the NS5M's on my back haul. I had turned that off. I browsed into the unit in question and sure enough enable extra reporting was checked again! I unchecked the enable extra reporting box and apply the settings many times and it kept coming back checked. It was a long process to get the settings how I wanted but I finally got everything the way I wanted it, though no matter what I do the POE passthrough box remains unchecked even though I checked it and applied the settings many times. It is passing POE so I'm just disregarding the checkbox and hoping it's just a glitch in the UI. Long version: I took notes through this process for my own reference and to make sure I could tell the story accurately to UBNT. (Through the process below I tired various browsers to make sure the problem wasn't due to some fluke in one of the browsers) Using Wireshark I noticed extended reporting coming from an NS5M which is running Station WDS (one end of a back haul), firmware is 5.2.1 RC2. In NS5M web interface I turned off extended reporting. Hit change then test but after unit rebooted it wasn't showing itself to be in the test mode (and the associated count down to restore settings was not showing) and extended reporting checkbox was back on. Unchecked extended reporting (again) and clicked apply this time instead of test. Unit went off line and the BulletM2 (my point of access) on the NS5M's secondary port never came back up. (I was accessing the NS5M through the BulletM2 at this point) Had to power cycle NS5M to revive the NS5M/BulletM2 combo. Came back up with extra reporting checkbox checked. Downgraded to 5.2. The combo came back up for a minute, then dropped off line again, then came back up and stayed up. Extra reporting checkbox still checked. Decided to try changing another setting. I picked the lock to AP MAC and put in the MAC address of the other end of the back haul. Hit test, the unit rebooted and came back with the log to AP MAC field blank. Downgraded to 5.0.1, then upgraded back up to 5.2.1 Connected via ethernet and reset to defaults. Start programming the unit. Manually set ack timing. Setting stuck. Turned on pass through, after reboot checkbox was unchecked. Tried it again, again the box is unchecked after the unit reboots. Restored to defaults again. Tried disabling extra reporting and turning off ack timeout auto adjust and turning on POE passthrough all at the same time. None of the settings stuck (according to the web interface but the Bullet M2 on the secondary port was up. Set the necessary changes on the wireless and network tabs. All settings stuck without a hitch. Returned to Advanced and set POE ack timeout auto adjust off and disabled extra reporting off (without changing POE passthrough - it was unchecked but passing through) and those settings stuck. The unit's behavior is as I want it. I was even able to lock the unit to the AP's MAC address. The only discrepancy is the POE passthrough is unchecked even though it's passing through (as I want it to). I'm thinking about TFTP'ing in the 5.2.1 RC2 firmware since it sounds like TFTP'ing the firmware in rewrites/partitions more of the unit's memory than upgrading the firmware via the web interface.

[WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
Today I finally figured out an Issue I've been having with a NanoStation5M. I have a customer who wanted service, was in trees but had a hot signal out at the road. Dug a 4 foot hole, put in 2 10 foot sections of rigid conduit and 5 bags of concrete. Ran an underground line of Cat5e, double shielded and flooded cable with ground wire to his house. That was 5 months or so ago. At the beginning of August, he called me and said his neighbor wanted service. Same trees so I took the AirGrid down, put up a Nano5M and plugged a Nano loco2 into the secondary port and shot it at a second Nano Loco2 at his place. Replaced my weird Airgrid Worked perfectly, everyone happy. 2 weeks ago I get a call, neighbor not working. I go out, no power light on the Nano at the pole. I figure, bad crimp... Take it down, make up a new wire to connect the two, fires up. All good. 2 days later, same issue. I reset it all to defaults, reconfigure, all okay. 2 days later, same thing. I downgrade firmware to 5.2. Couple of days later, no signal again. I'll also add I was getting some weird lag at the AP that this setup was feeding off of. So I was fighting two battles. Then today, I find that the PoE Pass Through check box is empty. DUH! I check it, apply, comes back empty. I do it again, same issue. I go out and I can connect my laptop through the secondary port but it will not give any voltage. I checked my lag time issue at the AP. GONE! I then checked in the UBNT forums. It's an issue. After 20 days PoE on the secondary Nano port starts to die. Replaced it with another Nano5M, working fine but looks like I'll be coming up with another MacGyver solution to service this dude Just so ya knows. Bob- WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] UBNT Nano5M Secondary RJ45 Port PoE Burnout!
I was skeptical of the poe passthrough sicne I first saw it and this is why. On repeaters, it would be so tempting to just run one wire but I've stuck with two. It will be interesting to see if it gets fixed. Thanks for sharing!

Been there. But mine finally died and the hard reset is now no more. Sucks.

I have a NS5M (back haul) which is passing through power and data to a BulletM2 as AP and I recently had some strangeness - I changed settings in the NS5M and power to the BulletM2 would start cycling. The BulletM2 is my access to the NS5M so I couldn't get in that way. I also couldn't browse in via ethernet. This happened more than once. One time I think cycling the power fixed it. The last time it happened I couldn't browse into the NS5M so I had to do a hard reset and reprogram it.
