Hi folks
I got one of this Nanostation Loco M5 XW for free, I know it's not one of the best devices one can have but it should be OK for me for doing field tests etc. - so I've downloaded and tfpt the Loco XW 3.23.8.0 firmware, the device starts but I don't get any LAN connection.
Searching the forum I found this forum post from 2018:
https://www.arednmesh.org/content/second-attempt-nanostation-loco-m5-no-...
which seem to explain the same problem. I however cannot believe that this issue has not been solved within one of the many firmware versions since that days...
My device has a test date of March 2018 - can anyone advice what to do to make this running?
Thanks a lot 73s

This is the firmware for that device. Is it what you're trying to load?

I've tried to load the current release and the lastet nightly - no success, no LAN.
Finally last night I found a post explaining I have to load the 3.22.12.0 firmware dedicated to the ubiquiti rocket.....and guess what - that worked!
So the answer is - no, the issue has never been resolved. And thus, no further firmware update possible on this device I guess.
Within only two month this is the second problem I run into using ubiquiti hardware. I think I better keep my hands off them for a while...
Thanks 73s
