What’s really funny is that someone mentioned this on the Ubiquiti forum one day. I think I said something like I don’t believe it. Less than 24 hours later, I’m doing an installation, I look across the street and sure enough, a woodpecker was laying a beatdown on a Nanostation 5M. We have since found about 4 radios like that out of a couple hundred in that area. My guess is they don’t like green since that’s where they start.

We're in Boston and nearby, equally urban, areas. We see pigeons and sea gulls all the time, but not too many woodpeckers. :) Thanks, Brough Brough Turner netBlazr Inc. – Free your Broadband!

The plastic cover on the light panel has failed but only over the power light and the LAN1 light. This radio failed in the field but my chief tech tells me this is the third Nanostation he's seen like this. With the other two he just squeegeed some clear silicon into the holes and smeared some with his thumb over the rest of the yellowed cover. [cid:[email protected]] Presumably the power light and LAN1 light are hotter than the signal strength lamps?? In any event, it's three (so far) out of a population of~200 installed between 2010 and 2015. Thanks, Brough Brough Turner netBlazr Inc. – Free your Broadband!
