@Fedor What can I do about non-AFC provisioned 4625 SMs without cnMaestro Cloud? I keep getting stock from Streakwave/ISP supplies that are apparently not provisioned, and I do not find that out until I try to deploy it?

Also what happens to on-prem cnMaestro since it has to have a cloud anchor account? Does Cambium have some other tool for scheduling FW updates?

Kinda the same question here, and it’s holding up some of our purchases. We had just started switching from Ubiquiti MLO6 to Cambium ePMP 4600c, and I would love to buy some more radios. Will I be able to provision them an enable AFC? I saw there was some sort of option to use AFC and bypass cnMaestro, but I don’t know how that works.

Please take my money!

I don’t have answers to all of the questions right now, but I believe we’ll be able to support you and address any potential issues if and when the ePMP business continues.

Regarding AFC provisioning, we always have the option of provisioning the radios with the required token using a manual script. Once things settle down, we’ll assess the potential impact, estimate the effort required, and revisit the priorities accordingly.

Thank you.

Cambium did talk me through updating it without using cnMaestro some time back. It was kind of a pain, but it did work. I have not encountered the issue in some time.

Well you are lucky. For some reason around 80% of all the SMs I have bought this year are not provisioned for ACF. Even ones I just bought the other day all come in missing the AFC key.
