hAP ac lite hardware quirks

published by AE6XE on Fri, 11/30/2018 - 00:19

N2MH and I have both observed odd behavior with the hAP ac lite when using a 12v battery power supply.   Specifically, it has been observed at times, if using the device on 5MHz channels and with a  12v Power Supply, it  does not make a link.    However, swapping to a 24v power supply it it is linking to other 2GHz mesh devices on 5MHz channel.    Keep an eye out for any any weirdness and if you are using a 12v supply, swap to a 24v to see if any change of behavior.   

Cradlepoint MBR95?

I was given an old MBR95. It has 32 MB of Ram and 16 MB flash. It's 2.4 GHz only, but I wonder if it might be compatible with any existing AREDN firmware. 

It's been EOL'd, so if there isn't a compatible firmware, it's probably not worth developing unless there are hardware compatibilities with currently available devices, like their AER1600. I kind of doubt there would be a lot of similar hardware inside though, the capabilities look pretty different. 

DTD Link

Good Morning Group,

I ran into a new hiccup the other day. At one of our user sites we are using a GLI-750 as a in shack node connected to a rooftop Ubiquity M2 Rocket. We have always set these up in the following configuration and not had a problem. We have the users local internet going to the WAN port of the GLI-750. The LAN port goes to an unmanaged switch for device access and the center port goes directly to the second rooftop node in the DTD configuration.

GL-AR150

The supported platform matrix lists the GL-AR150.  Amazon.CA lists two versions, one with an internal patch antenna and one with an external antenna.

Will both models accept the AREDN firmware?

Tnx

Low free flash memory concern? M2/M5 Rocket/PBE-M5

Good morning. I just configured a new PBE-M5-620 and noticed that the free flash memory was low. None of these nodes are running anything other than the lastest stable release of AREDN firmware, 3.20.3.1. Looking around the mesh a little, it looks like most similar nodes are in the same boat.

Then I checked my Rockets and there pretty close to the same:

New to dish antennas- Should I get a radome?

Good morning,

I just configured a new Ubiquiti PBE-M5-620. It's my first dish antenna, and I don't know too much about how to optimize their performance aside from pointing them in the right direction.

Do I need to get a radome for this?

Just posted this YouTube video showing one way to make decisions about the best radio option to meet a specific need in mesh networking.  Hope it's helpful.  THX

PoE adapter for 5v devices

Hardware

A few years ago Andre K6AH posted a great design (link) for running a remote 5v device (Raspberry Pi or VoIP phone) from portable DC power over a PoE cable with higher voltage.  Here is an example of an adapter based on his design which can convert 6v-24v dc supplied by a PoE cable to a 5v-3a micro USB and separate Ethernet data plug.  Looking forward to others who might share similar projects that help with deploying devices in the field.  THX

TP-Link CPE510 V3.8 Support

Is there anything on the roadmap to support this hardware revision ? I received my CPE510 and realized that it is not a V3, It's a V3.8 . Thanks in advance for any info.

Looking around at a similar article for the CPE210, I've included a file with the same info provided there.
