Long read, but wanted get out what we have found. Still don't have a workable solution other than replacing links with Mimosa which we are doing now to all the P to P links.
Here's a snipit of what a log shows. Nov 15 13:42:12 wireless: ath0 Received disassoc from 80:2a:a8:a8:56:81. Reason: Unspecified reason (1). Nov 15 13:42:13 wireless: ath0 New Access Point/Cell address:Not-Associated Nov 15 13:42:14 wireless: ath0 New Access Point/Cell address:80:2A:A8:A8:56:81 All these have Airmax quality and capacity numbers above 90% - SNR's above 30 some near 50 Point to Point PBE-M5-400 V 5.6.2 firmware - 20M Channel - DFS 5500 - 2.3 m link. No DFS issues. The link will stop passing traffic. Logging into the AP shows station at 144/6.5 rate. If I kick the station it will re-associate and work again - never more than a week sometimes less than a day. Looking at the station on the AP side the TX combined signal goes away and comes back a couple seconds later. A reboot of the AP looks to fix it as well as a kick of the station. Point to Point NB-13's V5.6.3 firmware - 10M channel - 1.2m link - power turned down - quality and capacity well above 95%. No interference issues. Ran for a few months with no problems. Started having the same issue as above radios. I noticed the latency number would jump to 100-200-500ms. Tried updating from 5.6.3 to 5.6.5 eventually to worked up to 5.6.9 - same issue persists. Point to Point NB25 to PBE-M5-400 V5.6.3 on both - 30M channel - 5.6 mile - non DFS. This is the first link I started having issues with. Thought it was related to XM to XW hardware. Replaced one side with a PBE-400 and the issue continued although it took a few weeks to show up. I did change the frequency a weeks ago from 5755 to 5760 it seemed to lasted longer without dropping but still drops off . I've tried from 5.6.3 through 5.6.9 with no success. Point to Point NB25 to PBE-M5-400 V5.6.2 on both - 20M channel - 2.8 mile DFS link. No issues at all until I replaced the NB25 with a NBE-400. Now I see 144.444/6.5 on it multiple times per day. The AP was the NB25. I had an NSM2 feeding 7 clients 10M channel - mixed NS2, M2, M2L, NB13's and NB18's - Replaced the AP with a PBE-M2400 to focus the energy down a road and started having issues with it a couple weeks later. Replaced all the clients that weren't XW hardware and the issue continues. PBE-M2-400 AP feeding 2 NB13 and 1 PBE-M2-400 client. All clients have the same issue, not always at the same time. I usually kick all three clients so as not to deal with the issue multiple times per day. Again, have updated firmware from 5.6.2 to 5.6.9 over the last month to no avail. I've tried all versions of firmware between 5.6.2 and 5.6.9 No beta yet but in reading the beta forum I don't expect it would help. Others reporting similar problems all the way through rc15 beta. I see in the Ubiquiti forums folks with similar issues being reported but no fix or what seems an acknowledgement of the issue. Any ideas ?
