Hi Chuck.  
Hi Chuck.  

What if its not an M2 or M5, but an "M"? 
 

Name: W4IE-SMHV-SECTOR-NORTH-22-DBI 

Model: Ubiquiti Rocket M XW  

FW: 3.22.1.0

 
I ssh'd into the unit to verify what it was. 
I thought it would be an M5 as its a 5GHz node. 
The file shows it as an "M".

Ubiquiti Rocket M XW
Hi, Mike:

I recommend treating it as a Rocket M5 XW.
IIRC, back around 2010-2015 the Ubuquiti devices were 'M'.
Then, in 2015-2017 they were 'XM'.
Now, they are 'XW'.
Also, IIRC, the same firmware was loaded without regard to band.
Lately there is a separate firmware for each device and band.

OK. I wanted to ask b/c I don
OK. I wanted to ask b/c I don't have physical access to it. It is on a tower and if it briks it will be difficult to reset and reload.

Software for Rocket M5 XW
When you go to the AREDN Software Download page, you will see release 3.25.10.0 on the right with a blank on the left for you to enter the model of your device.  Type in the model field  Rock or Rocket , and you will see
Ubiquiti Rocket 5AC Lite
Ubiquiti Rocket M XM
Ubiquiti Rocket M2 XW XW
Ubiquiti Rocket M5 XW XW
Pick the one you want, and firmware will be downloaded to your service computer.
