the re 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.
