I believe one of the very few issues with 3.5.1 is the inability to set GPS coordinates in the GUI. Not sure if setting via cnMaestro works or not. I haven't really paid much attention to it. The other thing I've been hearing is the 2k stops responding when STP BPDUs are heard. Haven't been able to confirm that. But I do have one 2k AP that goes down occasionally for a reason that I cannot figure out. I'm wondering if this is what's happening. We replaced everything and it still does it. So I'm thinking it's not a h/w issue. For now I just set up the SiteMonitor to auto cycle it. Other than that, 3.5.1 seems to be pretty stable. Hopefully they'll roll out 3.5.2 with fixes for this little stuff.

Yes, there is a GPS update for the older 1k radios with the GPS-only receiver as well as the new 1k and 2k APs with the GPS+GLONASS receiver. Supposed to fix the lockups. Then I noticed that cnMaestro started reporting that the GPS needs to be updated on a new 2k AP. But it is updated. And it still complains. Whatever.

FWIW, the "puck" is just an external active antenna. The receiver itself has an internal antenna and you can run without the puck. I have several 1k PTPs where I just wanted the gigabit ethernet, so the puck isn't attached, yet they're all tracking 7+ sats. Note that if you have a newer 1k or 2k AP, you need to use the square puck since that's for GPS+GLONASS. The old puck is GPS only.

        5ghz, seems to be working just fine.

            are you willing to consider it the new stable at this point?

            �

            We are still running 2.6.1.x on APs at this point and have
            a mix of it and a little 3.3 on SMs. I don�t see any
            issues on the forums or in the notes on the newest version
            and the few links I have on it have been just fine.

            Interested to hear everyone else�s thoughts.
