Ethernet LInk issues?

Mon Apr 23, 2018 3:25 pm

Greetings,
I use WS-8-150-DC's in a micropop scenario that is fed by fiber, and powers 1 A5-14 at each pole location. I have deployed a couple towns this way with no issues (20+ some poles) and I am currently working on my 3rd town with 19 poles. this deployment is setup exactly like all the others, the only difference being firmware on both the A5-14 and the Netonix. I have certified my ~40ft cable run from the switch to the AP at 1G with a certification tester and after a while, the link between the switch and the A5 goes down. i hop into the switch, and change any link related aspect of the port - 1G/Full to Auto, or flow control on/off, etc. and the link immediately re-establishes and works for a while again. A single CRC is also counted on the switch when this happens. I have tried different firnware on the A5-14 with no avail, and would like to try downgrading the Netonix to the same firwmare in all our other locations (1.4.7 or 1.4.8) but when I try that I get "Error: Missing fisdir_m25q128"

how can I accomplish a downgrade?

Read the long post I just wrote on another: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3632#p23837

AFX radios are known to have Ethernet link issues, this has been discussed on this forum and on the UBNT forums. It is usually found to be a poor jack connection at the radio.

I also have a WISP and have come across this issue and I too have found it to be an RJ45 jack issue.

As I said in the LONG winded email on the other post THERE IS NOTHING BETWEEN FIRMWARE VERSIONS THAT WILL AFFECT ETHERNET NEGOTIATION.

I see the other post I answered was also you, why create a post asking the same question in 2 threads?
