We've seen a few issues with the new 13.2 firmware for the 5.4/5.7 450 
equipment. Here is the bucket list -


*         If an AP is on 13.2, but an SM is on 13.1.3, there is the possibility 
that the SM cannot update because it is stuck in 8x/1x mode and throughput is 
significantly decreased. Manually going to the customer site and updating can 
bring the radio back up

*         In some cases, SM's after the update come back online with a better 
signal but a decreased throughput and modulation rate than what was previously 
viewed on 13.1.3

*         Behind a NAT'd SM, it does not appear that DNS is being properly 
passed by the SM to a customer's router. Manually setting the customers router 
to our DNS servers (instead of relying on the NAT'd IP address) appears to 
resolve the issue. Manually setting the DNS IP address to the NAT'd SM's IP 
does not resolve the issue.

We have since rolled back from 13.2 to 13.1.3 which was stable with our 
particular network configuration. I have no intention of rolling forward to 
13.2 again for Cambium testing purposes (sorry guys) however I would be able to 
answer any specific details to our configuration if it is helpful.
