[MLB-WIRELESS] [MELB-WIRELESS] Looking for a Nanobeam M2-13

[Andrew van Slageren]

Hey Morgan,

It looks like the NBE-M2-13 is an XW based device, which shares firmware 
images and CPU architecture with many other radios (e.g. the PowerBeam 
M2/5 range).

Unfortunately I don't have any spares kicking around, however if you 
still have a functional u-boot I'd be happy to send through dumps of the 
mtd partitions off a functional Powerbeam M5, then you may be able to 
restore following a process similar to this: 
https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Wireless/HOWTO-Unbrick-your-UniFi-AP/td-p/338684/page/5

That said, if you've nuked and don't have a copy of your "EEPROM" 
partition (mtd5) which contains all of the factory calibration 
information, I'm not sure if an EEPROM image from another radio (let 
alone a different model or frequency) will cut it:

XW.v6.1.7# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00040000 00010000 "u-boot"
mtd1: 00010000 00010000 "u-boot-env"
mtd2: 00100000 00010000 "kernel"
mtd3: 00660000 00010000 "rootfs"
mtd4: 00040000 00010000 "cfg"
mtd5: 00010000 00010000 "EEPROM"
XW.v6.1.7#

Cheers,

Andrew.
