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.

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....
