Please don't take me wrong on this but your statement (b) bothers me.
You are either running a very old version of Air OS or you have no
clue what your talking about. UBNT has support for SNMP which I use
to monitor not only uptime but signal strength and a few other key
items check out ZenOss if you need to watch these devices or any
other network device for that matter. AirOS also has a "Watchdog
timer" in the software that will automatically reboot a device that
fails a ping time you set. I have never had to power cycle a UBNT
device. In fact I had to reboot a Mikrotik router because it had a
locked process in the packet sniffer application that drove the CPU
to 100% so the UBNT gear has a higher uptime than the core router.

My biggest concern with these units is (a) lack of mechanical
robustness -
little plastic bits leak or break off quite easily and (b) lack of a
hardware watchdog timer which personally I think is essential esp.
when
you're using "development stage" firmware. We did most of the work
to port
our Qcode to run on the ubnt platform, but have decided to shelf
that
project for another year, waiting for things to really settle down.
In the
CCTV business, there's no-one around to power-cycle the equipment
and
unrecoverable device hangs are really a disaster. I realize that the
ISP
business is a little different because the customer can always
reboot the
CPE!
