I have one unit that is
loosing conection about once a week, the rest of them I am not having any
problem with or any problem with the APPO. If I update this one AB with the new
firmware do I need to upgrade the APPO also to make this work?

Subject: [smartBridges] Feedback
on Beta Firmware 1.4j9 (airPointPro) and 0.01.08 (airBridge)
Hi all,
As you already aware, we
have beta firmware for the airBridge as well as the airPointPRO series to
address occasional disassociation. The firmware has the watchdog feature in
built into it, a timer which will reset the unit under certain conditions, this
will ensure that the link is up most of the time unless there is some physical
damage to the device. This was after many have reported that a simple power cycle,
software reset or refresh in the site survey will establish back the
connection.
This
firmware is currently under beta testing and we have got a positive feedback, looking for more responses from customers before we do a final
release. Anyone
who has tested thoroughly and can produce the report in details on the
observation (comparing the beta and current firmware, pre or post-june units)
will get a token of appreciation. It is given away while stock last.
If you
have any airBridge or airPointPro (in client bridge, repeater or wireless
bridge mode) that exhibit the above symptom, you are welcome to test the beta
firmware below by clicking the firmware link.
