Nodes

Am trying to flash Ubiquiti NanoBeam AC with AREDN firmware. Changed existing firmware to 8.7.0 and copy AREDN firmware to node and wrote the program to bypass checking process,but when I try to load the firmware from the Ubiquiti WA prompt, I get a group of error messages starting with error in line 1 and error in line 17. Had also tried logging out of Ubiquiti prompt and upgrading firmware direct from setup in node but upgrade fails due to not being signed.

Hello,
As this is my first post here I'd like to welcome everyone.

I’m trying to install AREDN firmware on a Mikrotik board and I am struggling with that. 

At the beginning I’d like to mention that I have some basic experience with that process - 3 running nodes - 2 of them Mikrotik. Thus the problem isn’t trivial.

Saw Ori post in Github that  hAP ac lite will no longer be recommended?!. even though it is still listed on hardware support?

Please advise as we got just recently bought a bunch of ac lite's and had multiple fail to upgrade on the last  two nightly builds and to re-flash.

• See posts about ac lite crashing and where memory is a starting to become an issue... how about if we disable wireless?

I flashed my ac lite with 3.25.2.0 and can create a mesh connection with my ac3, but when I plug the ac lite into my home router (using port 1 here from https://downloads.arednmesh.org/snapshots/readme.md and https://arednmesh.readthedocs.io/en/latest/arednHow-toGuides/home-router... ) the ac lite gets hot and turns both LEDs off, which made me worried about some electrical fault.

Quick background -- I'm trying to set up a station, with the initial design goal of local access and portable operation with the option to expand to a node with some good LOS back to the LA basin from Verdugo or Wilson.

I've set up an hAP ac Lite for local access and bridging to my local network. That works great and I can connect up a second mikrotik device over the passive PoE passthrough for the "real" mesh link.

I have a Litebeam M5 that is running 3.22.12.0.  I wanted to get this node updated to the newer firmware to match my other Mikrotik nodes.  I do have the node on a smart switch that allows it to get Internet access (using vlans).  I have tried several ways to update the node:
