I am not 100% sure on this, but I have only been loading XM firmware with
NSM, Rockets and NanoBridges. For anything newer, like the NanoBeams we
have been using the XW firmware.

I have seen pretty decent improvements on throughput in some of my rocket
APs since we did these software upgrades. I don't have any PowerBridges in
service anymore, so I can't speak for those.
