I think the basic problem may be the hardware has gone south or there is something special about the M900 series because of the down converter, perhaps. Now that 24 hours have elapsed without an answer on openwrt-users, I'll ask here: Is there a self-test on the AR9280 (or whichever chip is used in the Ubiquiti M900 series)? kind regards/ldv -- Larry Vaden, CoFounder Internet Texoma, Inc.
