That's what I thought. The way some people were talking about it, it
sounded like I misunderstood.

Yeah XM devices need XM firmware, XW devices need XW. Different hardware.

No. Different architecture.
Think compiled for Arm vs x86 Windows.

I thought the XM versus XW was just a hardware thing. Is it
possible to update a device that is on XM with XW?

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.

I know that was some discussion on this and some people
said that mixing firmware was a problem, even with
5.5.10. I hadn’t seen the problem until about a week
ago. Had PowerBridge talking to a Powerbeam talking to
a PowerBridge which then link to a another PTP using
NS5’s and an AP on that end. It seemed to work great for
several months. A week ago, the AP at the end started
pushing through 10-20 pings and then dropping 3 pings.
After finding nothing, we pull the PowerBridge and
replaced it with a PowerBeam. Problem solved.
On the other hand, we have a boatload of NS5M’s, some
with XW firmware connected to XM Rockets. No problems so
far.
