Description

There are two versions of the Ubiquiti Airgrid M5 HP:

  • the "old" one, which runs the Bullet M firmware (identical hardware except for the RF part not bein N connector but in the focal point of the dish).

OEM Firmware:
http://www.ubnt.com/download/?group=airgridm (select AirGrid M5 / XM firmware)

This is the ToH entry:

There is some info on the Airmax M platform in general:

  • the "new" one, which is not supported yet

http://www.ubnt.com/download/?group=airgridm (select AG-HP-5Gxx / XW firmware)

Support for the Nanostation M XW is already done:

I even tried to flash a trunk image for the NS M XW to the AG-HP-5G. The bootloader let me flash the firmware via tftp and didn't complain (you'll have to rename it eg. to XW.v6.0.OpenWrt.release.14.07.20141002). However, I only saw DHCP requests on the ethernet interface, so it's probably configured as a WAN interface.

The OEM bootlog for the AG-HP-5G is here:

There are AirOS images with OLSR both for XM and XW devices:
