I have a number of Bullet M5 as APs and working fine except two locked up, one time each (so far). I cycled power and they started again ok. The ping watchdog feature is not enabled but thinking about doing so.

Is the watchdog a hardware or firmware only implementation ? If firmware only, wondering if it locks up too and not able to restart Bullets ?

Thanks

Hello,

The watchdog is only for firmware at this time. What firmware are you currently using on these devices?

Thanks

Thanks Mike,

- All Bullet M APs using 5.02. Any special details about that rev?

- Wondering how effective the ping watchdog is when it is part of the firmware that can hang up ?

- Did I understand that a newer version of Bullet has a hardware ping watchdog ?

Thanks

You might want to upgrade to 5.1 firmware...

Hello,

Please update to V5.1 of the firmware and your problems will be resolved.
