Hi. I just acquired the nbe-m2-13 as listed on the supported hardware list but it does not appear in the firmware download list.
http://downloads.arednmesh.org/firmware/ubnt/html/stable.html
Since I can't seem to find an actual NanoBeam M5-13 hardware device, I need to ask if this is a typo-error in the web site which actually should be for the M2-13?
Is the aredn-3.18.9.0-ubnt-loco-m-xw-factory,bin file correct for the 2.4GHz NanoBeam NBE-M2-13?
Thanks,
Rob
The nbe-m5-13 is a misprint. There is no such device. It should be listed as the nbe-m2-13. The 5GHz version is the nbe-m5-16. We'll get it changed. Thanks for pointing it out. And yes, you've identified the correct image.

I bought a MikroTik RBLHG-2nD-XL thinking that it was just a typo from the Supported Platform Matrix. labeled "RBLHG-2HPnD-XL." Because the "RBLHG-2HPnD-XL" doesn't exist anywhere I could find.
I hope this is just a typo and the RBLHG-2nD-XL really is supported for nightly builds. However, I do not see it in the nightly builds list.
Please tell me it's not a typo or accidental double-tap on the Supported Platform Matrix for the RBLHG-5HPnD-XL.
Thank you so much,

I've downloaded the 'factory' binary listed above and I can see the Nanobeam with AirOS from the factory v5.6.11 (xw).
My tftp session seems to connect okay but the file transfer timesout. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Rob
First change the working directory to where the AREDN image resides. In a Windows CMD window it should look like this:
C:\Users\Andre\documents\aredn\firmware>tftp -i 192.168.1.20 PUT aredn-3.18.9.0-ubnt-loco-m-xw-factory.bin
This works reliably for me.
Are you on on Windows 7, 10, OSX, linux?
I tried both Windows 10 & linux (Mint 19.1).
The following is from win10:
I added both telnet & tftp clients from the Add Windows Features (Microsoft built-in, not 3rd party); I also tried the pumpkin-2.7.3.exe GUI from the ubnt.com recommendation with similar results.
laptop address is 192.168.1.88; subnet is 255.255.255.0 default gateway is 192.168.1.20
ping time is 1ms 4 sent 4 returned 0 lost
I am in the path where the binary file is located.
The 1-3,2-4 sequence is blinking when I execute tftp -i 192.168.1.20 PUT aredn-3.18.9.0-ubnt-loco-m-xw-factory.bin
the sequence blinks uninterrupted and then the timeout occurs with 'Connect request failed'
After pinging the node, enter the following command in a CMD window:
>arp -a
The response lists the IP addresses of the devices your computer sees on the LAN and their corresponding MAC addresses. Now compare the mac of the node your trying to load with the one listed for IP address 192.168.1.20
This will confirm whether your computer is trying to talk to the device you think it is.

interface 192.168.1.88 --(my laptop)
192.168.1.20 - dynamic
192.168.1.255 - static
224.0.0.22 - static
224.0.0.252 - static
239.255.255.250 - static
I'm going straight through the POE. there are no other devices.
When the device is in the 1-3 2-4 mode, should I be able to ping it? I can only ping when it is NOT in the 1-3 2-4 mode.
Also, 192.168.1.20 is tied to the WLAN0 MAC not the LAN0 MAC. (I found this in the AirOS interface. Maybe dynamic with Ubiquiti firmware?)
Now the AREDN screen is coming up with UNTESTED HARDWARE in the web page. Can still navigate but it is extremely slow.
Thank you for your efforts!
