Ah…thank you!  Obviously I’m on the ignorant side regarding encryption and 
authentication. However, I do know I’ve had most of these NSM2s reporting 
higher modulation rates, despite being set for WPA2/TKIP.

 

I think once I make sure all the CPE are running AES, then I can set the Wavion 
AP for AES only and cross my fingers…

That's the normal behavior on XW units. Updated wireless spec discontinued TKIP 
and WEP for authentication methods. 

 

Can you force your AP to run in AES mode only? TKIP also limits you from using 
the higher QAM16 and QAM64 rates ie mcs 13-15

So….

I went to replace one of those NanoBridge M2’s with a NanoBeam M2 after 
upgrading it to 5.5.10. The (Wavion) AP is configured for WPA2 mixed mode PSK 
// AES +TKIP // PSK by passphrase and all of the NanoBridges were 
authenticating fine set for WPA2-TKIP // PSK and the passphrase or WPA2-AES // 
PSK and the passphrase. However, the ‘Beam running 5.5.10 has no WPA2-TKIP 
setting, only WPA2-AES.  It will not authenticate with that setting and the 
proper passphrase. The log of the AP shows an “incorrect password” message. 

Going to downgrade to 5.5.9 and try it again…..
