Re: hAP ax lite LTE - issues after modem FW upgrade to 16121.1034.00.01.01.05

Another workaround I have tested is to set the Netwatch monitor to some IP for example 8.8.8.8 and if ping failed set the script to disable/enable the lte1 interface. UPDATE: Just now I update to 7.13.5 and after the update when I check the firmware of the modem it now shows installed version 16121....

Re: hAP ax lite LTE - issues after modem FW upgrade to 16121.1034.00.01.01.05

I have the same problem with 7.13.4 and the latest firmware but I think have found the solution - 2 days of uptime without the problem. First I create a new APN profile with the settings from the provider and in this profile uncheck Use network APN . Then select to only use IPv4 (default is Auto) an...

Every DC power adapter rated 24V and at least 1.5A will do the job. Just in case I recommend you to use at least 2.0A adapter.

Re: iOS14 "Use Private Address" Random MAC (Default) and Time Restrictions

One way to solve this problem is to use Static-only for the DHCP server. In this case, if users change their MAC address they will not be able to obtain an IP address. This will force them to disable the option in iOS settings. Also this will not work for all users, because some of them will set the...

In my case, LAN-1 use primary ISP-1, but with second default rule in its routing table for ISP-2. The second rule is with a higher distance so it is only used when first is disabled with netwatch.

I use DHCP option 43 but for Ubiquiti UAPs. Your mistake is - IP address in option 43 should be in hex, for example 192.168.0.15 in hex is c0a8000f. Also for UAP you need to add 0104 in front of hex IP address, in my example the value for option 43 should be 0104c0a8000f
