Farmer Crack-rear end posted:thanks and "god bless", i think all the eol'd ubiquitiy models were the 1st gen 802.11ac ones, from 2014/2015. it's a pain in the rear end, but iirc they changed the hardware platform midway through that generation and so they probably don't care to maintain two different firmware branches for 5-year old hardware

what is the replacement pico model because our pico was loving awesome until it just stopped working for no good reason other than a lightning strike and now I can’t seem to find the pico

i dont think the picostation ever got upgraded even to 5GHz N, much less AC. so its been dead for awhile. i guess you could put an omni antenna on a bullet if you really need omni and airmax

yeah to be fair most of them have been up for a few years now anyway, it's not my money but the company got their money's worth. not thrilled about "surprise, time to go up on manbaskets and scissorlifts!" but w/e that's part of the job. what i'm really grumpy about is that we just re-deployed a few of the EOL units a couple months ago to a new location, thinking we were saving some money by using up some spares we had. if i'd known this was coming i could have ordered new ones that wouldn't have had to be touched. oh well

lol yeah i've never had training either. tbf i've never gone up in a scissor lift before, i just assume that'll be part of it at some point. the nice forklift manbasket at the main warehouse has a belt you put on that's chained to the basket, in addition to the gate. the one that gets used out at the yards just has a flimsy little gate that gets chained closed. we've also got one location where the network rack is up in a loft and only accessible via ladder. as in, you have to do work while on the ladder. oof. hate that place. hoping that location gets remodeled soon so i can push for "move that poo poo down to ground level already, the gently caress" this job was definitely my first experience in a manbasket though. fortunately it's a good culture here, no yahoos trying to be dickish or anything. my biggest worry so far has been hornets buzzing near one of the WAP enclosures.

good lord those things were such loving trash. even by the standards of early 2000s soho routers they loving sucked rear end on a whole other level iirc they absolutely required an application to do the first run config and a very high percentage of the time it would just fail to find the router, ever
