FWIW, we have 13.4 on everything now; FSK, PMP430, and PMP450. We're not
seeing the watchdog resets.

Damn that sucks about it not being a fix. I too read the release notes
too fast. FWIW, installing 13.4 has made for a bit more stable network
on our 450's.

I probably read the Release Notes too fast and assumed that it was
a fix. I just re-read them and I only see what you do. So it
appears that there was no 'bug fix' for this issue. In the
Cambium forum, Matt M noted that there may be a Maintenance
release to address this. He did not state an ETA. I would assume
that us submitting support tickets <shudder> would help them get
closer to squashing the bug.

Brian, is it your understanding that 13.4 was supposed to cure
or help the watchdog resets? I don't see anything in the
release notes other than the log entry for user initiated resets.
I wish I could detect a pattern or cause-effect relationship
which APs exhibit this and which rarely or never do.

For us, we rolled back the affected AP's to 13.2 and they are
back to
their normal routine (once in a while reboots). I replaced
one of them
and brought back here to test. I'll know more after we
collect graph
data and submit a ticket with Cambium.

So what's the current status on this? Is it better to
upgrade to 13.4, or stay on 13.2? And do you have to
upgrade both APs and SMs?
And was 13.4 supposed to fix a watchdog reset problem? Or
just create a different event log entry for user initiated
reboots?
Watchdog resets are a big problem, it used to be just
gamers and VoIP users, but now everyone bitches if their
video stream buffers. Or their smartphone switches to
using mobile data, or their webcam has gaps. And it's
worse with DFS or LBT.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Canopy 13.4 Watchdog Reset
We have been seeing this across 200+ AP's
It's getting truly annoying. Cambium tech support has
helpful suggestions like'just put them in free run'.
Um.... Thanks for the help, but no.

Last week we rolled out 13.4 to 450 AP's after testing
in-house for a while. While running 13.2 we would see
an AP here or there reboot on occasion by itself. The
only message in the Event Log mentions Watchdog
Reset. This is one of the bugs that Cambium noted was
fixed in the 13.4 release notes.
Since we upgraded the network to 13.4 we are now
seeing at least 4 AP's out there rebooting several
times per day. On one of these AP's we are also
seeing SM's (all 17 registered) reboot along with the
AP. The site has UPS backup so I know it's not a
power grid problem. I am planning to roll the
affected AP's back to 13.2 this evening.
Anyone else having Watchdog issues with the 13.4 release?
