I had a pair of units in the field that would not allow themselves to be fully reset to defaults.
At first I blamed the desk tech who did the config. Then I blamed the field guy for not being able to reset it. Then I drove out there. It was probably a couple of bad units (fair, I guess) but we were also suffering some pretty serious DFS issues on another pair of links, so, we’re waiting it out at his point.

I can't take it anymore, I'm going back to UBNT for non-FSK/450 stuff. I can no longer deal with the slow and horrible EPMP interface. I thought it would get better as the firmware matured but its not getting any better, Just loaded the latest firmware 2.3.3 and its still slower than a turtle going in the wrong direction. For crying out loud the old Tranzeo interface is faster than this! Chrome, and IE 11 it doesn't matter it literally takes me 30 minutes to config one of these radios. By the time you upgrade the firmware and "try" to upload a template to one. (never does want to take a backup config is always erroring out) I can't afford to be sitting at the bench all day fiddling with these radios. You can't even type text in the fields that already have characters in them without getting some weird outcome. Everytime i go to deal with one of these radios i always end up with obscenities coming out of my mouth and I even have a hole punched in a wall in the shop cause i got so frustrated with one a few weeks back. Maybe Bitlomat will come out with third party firmware for these and save us all.... Kurt Fankhauser Wavelinc Communications P.O.
