there was an rc3 before 5.5.10 final :P

Do you even firmware alerts, bro?

Yeah, there were two RC versions published.

Wasn't it in beta?  Someone said there were two RC.

    It occurs to me an alternative model would be to redo Ubnt beta
    testing. Buggy firmware is making it out of beta and I believe
    more issues could be caught in Beta if Ubnt could help WISPs test.
    Have staff that work specifically with partner wisps. Run advanced
    diagnostics on our network, help us migrate devices to new
    firmware (in the middle of the night during off hours), diagnose
    problem devices, run performance metrics. We all have networks, we
    just don't have resources to test your firmware for you.

    I feel there are a lot of issues that Ubnt would catch en-vivo
    this ways. For example, the ToughSwitch-pro fiasco, or the Edgemax
    hardware acceleration reboots.

    Whatever field testing you are doing its not enough. Help us out,
    and you can more fields than you can imagine.

        Ubnt now has a market cap of 3.04 Billion USD. You have the
        resources, it seems test engineers should be finding these
        problems, not me.

        Same applies to ToughSwitch-Pro microburst performance
        problems and EdgeMax Lite IP offload (that crashes all Edgemax
        that touch vlans, even if VLAN acceleration is disabled).

        The wireless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The
        ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail
        in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the
        same, only without the cat.

            We are having serious problems with v5.5.10 with 5GHz XM
            hardware and have decided this firmware is not production
            ready. We using *v5.5.10 only for links that require
            UNII-1* frequencies and avoiding in all other situations.
            There is some sort of a bug with scanning for available
            networks, so if your area has few networks, you might
            observe different behavior.

            
http://community.ubnt.com/t5/Installation-Troubleshooting/v5-5-10-major-bug-no-SSIDs-in-scan-print-scanning-info-buffer/m-p/1072997#U1072997

            *AirOS v5.5.10 is not production ready!*

            Ubiquiti, it appears you have a major bug and need to
            revoke the release, remove from website, until you get
            this fixed.

            We have now had 3 clients -- 2 Nanobridges and 1 Rocket M5
            -- disconnect from their AP with the same behavior: NO
            SSIDs appear in scan list. Downgrade to v5.5.8, no changes
            to config, radio once against sees SSID and connects
            perfectly.

            *Workaround: Frequency Scan List*

            I cannot fully confirm this, but it appears, v5.5.10 plus
            frequency scan list has this problem less. It also might
            be that this pares down the amount of data coming from the
            atheros driver (by not scanning all frequencies), and scan
            list doesn't actually fix the issue, just reduces the scan
            data to something that doesn't break the radio.

            *iwlist ath0 scan -- print_scanning_info: buffer too
            large(65535) for realocating*

            In our most recent incident, I was able to SSH into the
            failed v5.5.10 STA

            XM.v5.5.10# iwlist ath0 scan
            print_scanning_info: buffer too large(65535) for realocating

            XM.v5.5.10# wlanconfig ath0 list scan
            ioctl[unknown???]: Argument list too long
            wlanconfig: unable to get scan results

            We are running now with a frequency scan list (cannot
            downgrade this radio) and both iwlist and wlanconfig
            commands are working properly.

            More details:

            APs: Problem happens with both Nanostation M5 APs and
            PowerBridge-M5 APs

              - Seen with AP on v5.5.10

              - Seen with AP on v5.5.8

            STAs: Problem observed with NB-22-M5 and Rocket-M5

            DFS: Problem observed on both DFS and non-DFS frequencies
            (5805)

            Most recent incident, Rocket was working fine for a few
            days, suddenly died. It rebooted in the process (only 2min
            uptime when I got to it). Let sit 10min, rebooted, made no
            difference, gave buffer too larger error no matter how
            many reboots. Only enabling scan list patched it.
