We had call yesterday about a link going down. I could see RF was fine
and LAN cable plugged but no traffic passing. We headed out there and I
had connected to Rocket M5...LAN light would come in and out. We saw all
LEDs operational on radio...like stuck. We changed POE after checking
cable and still no LAN link. We tried resetting to default. Nothing.
replaced radios and configured it. Good link..Internet on laptop,
connect it to their Cisco Linksys router...no LEDs on WAN port. checked
that cable..nope its good. LAN and wireless ports are working ..
They had another router already configured. Tried that and success.
So according to client on Monday, thunderstorm passed through area around
closing time. Apparently a strike or surge burned out WAN port of router
and LAN port of Rocket but nothing else on same surge protector. Mast is
grounded.
