We upgraded a bunch of PMP430s last night from 11.2 to 13.2 (going
through 12.1 along the way).
We noticed that all the "half channel" (frequencies on 2.5 MHz centers)
were unchecked after the update. Of course, those center frequencies
did not even exist in 11.2, so I don't really consider this a bug.
Otherwise everything went swimmingly.
Kind of nice that you can update the list without a reboot.
Also really nice to be able to sort subs by signal quality (SNR/power
level, speeds, etc). Really saves time.

We are investigating the issue with urgency and I will post an update
as soon as we have something. The official 13.2 release build has no
additional changes from build 40, so we are also surprised by this.

Some info for Cambium on the build 32 thing. I had the SMs on that
sector locked down to the bandwidth and frequency of the AP. This
is where I was having a ton of registration issues and the 2+
minute scan was a PITA. Anyway... when these SMs on 13.2 official
tried to register to the AP when it was on build 32, ALL of them
kept watchdog resetting over and over. I tried rebooting the AP
first and they still did it. Updated the AP to official and they
are calm now. I did have one SM on the AP scanning everything and
it did not watchdog reset.
So the scan list thing. I haven't attempted any 2.4 or 3.6 450's
yet. Still working my way through 5GHz. I just went through every
SM that updated and so far looks like every single one lost no 5.4
freqs and only 5767.5 and 5807.5.
I'm stopping for tonight because one disaster was narrowly
averted, I don't need another one.
Oh, plus about 90% of the APs are booting up using iGPS. But you
guys already know about that and there's nothing I can do about
it.. well there is but it sucks.

13.2 on the SM definitely does not jive with build 32 on the AP.
So.. don't do that. I forgot I still had that AP on build 32
until it was too late. SMs would pop in session for about 2
seconds and go down again. Luckily updating the AP to 13.2
official fixed it.
I'm also seeing 5GHz SMs losing freqs. But it's funny, like 99%
of them only lose 5767.5 and 5807.5. I try to avoid the 2.5
centers whenever I can since I've noticed exactly what you guys
are seeing here in the past, ALL of the 2.5 centers disappear. I
don't use 5MHz bandwidth, and I usually lock the scan list on the
SM down to the band the AP is operating in. So maybe that's why I
was losing only a couple freqs.

It's crazy. No warning, no release notes about it. How does this
come out of all the betas and you lose your SM's because a
frequency isn't checked...

Yeah I noticed that same with 5Ghz looks like they unchecked
the rarely used channels in SM with 13.2 programmer was
probably thinking he was helping but lots are going to complain

Just did a >200 group of SM's and the upgrade has
removed frequencies that were previously checked. I
followed the guide and did the SM's first and AP's last.
Luckily the majority of these can see another AP but
what the fuck...
About half of these SM's were on 13.2(34) and the other
half were on 13.1.3...
This is what it looks like after an update

Pre update they were all
