Every ubnt ptp backhaul we have is running apWDS/stationWDS and we pass OSPF over them all day, Both ways. What firmware are you using? were running 5.2.1 Beta 2 But we upgrade as soon as they come out, So we should have hit the bug at one point...

It didn't occur to me before; Star backhauls have no WDS configuration as it automatically puts clients in WDS mode if they are compatible, but it's an obvious reason as to why it would happen. Thank you for your assistance.
