I have two Ubiquiti NanoStation Loco M5 units.
Tried installing the first, seemed I bricked it.
Tried the second one and it went well, installed and tested, connected to the mesh.
Went back to the first one:
Put it in TFTP Server mode and PUT the Ubiquiti firmware on it and it works fine.
Put it in TFTP Server mode and PUT the AREDN firmware on it, It reboots and all, LEDs look like the functioning one but I cannot connect to it.
LEDs Power ON, LAN Blinking Next LED slow RED Blink, Last LED Green solid on.
Instructions say 192.168.1.1 connected to a computer interface set to DHCP.
I also tried the IP that I TFTP's to 192.168.1.20 and a few others, nothing.
I look at the laptop and it gets a gateway of 10.149.17.89 and an IP of 169.254.209.213, not good.
Windows Network Diagnostics states that the "Ethernet' doesn't have a valid IP configuration.
Any ideas?

If you can re-load Ubiquiti firmware on it, it is not bricked. ;-)
By default, 5 GHz devices with a TFTP upload of AREDN firmware boot into
channel 149 at 10 MHz bandwidth.
With both powered up, can the 'second' see the first via RF?
By default, the LAN is a /29 so, if your computer is reporting a gateway of 10.149.17.89, then
you may be able to assign a static address on your workstation among 10.149.17.90 through .94
and then browse http://10.149.17.89
I hope this helps, Chuck
