Terrific! I will
downgrade to 5.5 and then I'll try with the "bullet"
image from the Chef. Thanks.

Sorry I
didn't specify, for the Ubiquiti airMax hardware serie there
are just a few OpenWrt/LEDE images which differs in how many ethernet
and USB port are present on the device, as explained here:
https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/ubiquiti/airmaxm
So, the PowerBeam and NanoBeam have just one ethernet port and no USB:
the "bullet" image should be the most suitable one. On 11/05/2016 09:03 AM, Amuza wrote:
But, I
have not seen any "PowerBeam" word or similar within the binaries
cooked by the Chef for my network. The "ubnt" binaries I find are:
air-gateway, airrouter, bullet, loco, ls, nano, rocket, rs, uap, unifi... I have played with Nanostation M5, and they work
ok, but I am looking
for a more directional solution for a long distance poin-to-point link
within a noisy environment.
My experience in the field is too limited for giving
you an answer.
Anyway looking at the supported Ubiquiti devices the PowerBeam M5 400
(PBE-M5-400 https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/ubiquiti/powerbeam) looks good. I just don't know
what is the "loco" image...
Loco is the name of some NanoStation models
[1]. It is also the Spanish
word describing the state I turn into when trying to understand all this
chipset thing... The link you sent [2] reads ar71xx chipset, but on the
Ubiquity site -for models like PowerBeam or NanoStation- I just can find
Atheros MIPS 74Kc, 560 MHz...
