I had a stable link over about 500m between two Engenius EOC2610 units with stock firmware, one set as Access Point and the other Client Bridge, dynamic (not static) IP for each unit. MAC addresses were passed and the units worked flawlessly. I 'upgraded' the CB unit with the latest DD-WRT firmware (V24-SP2 21061) in order to have a repeater bridge but the AP is still Engenius firmware. I have not had a stable connection since and need to reboot the system frequently. In addition MAC addresses are not passed through the bridge any more. I have read all the wikis and understand that WDS mode will probably not work now (tried once so far without success) as the units have different firmware, realize I cannot restore the original firmware without a complicated flashing using the serial connector, and REALLY regret having installed DD-WRT. Please confirm that DD-WRT firmware is not stable when used with original Engenius firmware, or let me know of any solution (other than purchasing DD-WRT for the AP).
Thanks

Hello, all!
I recently started working at a low-budget mission school outside the US.
When I arrived, the two outdoor access points on-campus were not working. Both are Engenius EOC2611P APs.
I determined that both power supplies for the PoE injectors were dead (using a multimeter), and since it takes two to three weeks for anything to get shipped here, and since I have no way of testing whether the injectors themselves work, I ordered a couple of Ubiquiti 24v PoE injectors, that according to various sources online are compatible with the Engenious APs (they use the opposite polarity that Engenius does for PoE, but the Engenius APs have automatic polarity switching).
Anyway, they arrived Friday, so I plugged them in. The APs started broadcasting, but I was unable to ping them. I climbed up on the roof, and the Power and WLAN lights were on, but the LAN light was off.
Long story short, after much testing, I believe I have determined that it is a problem with the APs themselves, rather than part of the link between them and the rest of the network (I can even disconnect power from the PoE injector, and climb up on the roof with my laptop and access the internet using the ethernet cable going to the AP).
If anyone has any idea what it could be, feel free to let me know... I am about to give up with these APs (they're out of warranty), which leads me to the next section of this thread...
Does anyone have any recommendations for replacements? The clients that are connecting to them are located about 1/8 of a mile away from one, and around 1/4 to a max of 1/2 a mile away from the other one (both have external directional antennas, which appear to use some sort of small coax cable). I have looked at the new Engenius models, but they appear to be receiving mixed reviews in terms of reliability. Since these are mounted outdoors where it rains a lot (located in Palau), uncompromising weather-proofing is an absolute must. One thing I am considering is just having the AP indoors, and running the cable up to the antenna through the hole in the roof that was used by the ethernet cable... But would prefer just to be able to swap out the existing AP and leave it be.
Thanks for any advice you can provide!
