I was called to a hospital to fix their wifi. Since there wasn’t a spare AP, they handed me a Nanostation M2 that was used in another building as an outdoor AP. Now I’m having trouble getting phones and laptops to connect to the Nano’s wifi. I tried disabling AirMax, changing channel width, switching device modes (Bridge, Router, SOHO Router) and DHCP and Static IP modes. They had a Rocket M2 that I also tried setting up but it also failed to assign an IP address to the devices.
What am I missing? The devices worked fine before I reset them.
See if you can change the AP’s transmission frequency to 2.4GHz mode. It’s been long since nitumie Nanostations but you might find it’s set to 5GHz WiFi which most mobile devices do not support.
M2 models only use 2.4GHz. M5 models use both 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
You are both very wrong M5 is 5Ghz M2 is 2.4Ghz I think what you are missing is one little detail called country update both to the latest firmware and manually set the transmit frequency I suggest 2.412 if stuck I can help.
