Wireless firmware versions MR 31.1.5.1 changelog

Important note

• Wi-Fi 5 Wave 2 MRs support - This version and subsequent MR 31.x.x are only supported on 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) and newer MR models. 802.11ac Wave 2 and older products will not upgrade if they are in networks configured for MR 31.x.x versions, and thus, the new features will not be available. The bug fixes listed below will also not apply to Wi-Fi 5 Wave 2 and older MRs. (https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Other_Topics/Cisco_Meraki_MR_Firmware_Restrictions_Overview_and_...)

Bug fixes

• General stability and performance improvements
• Potential crash loops for 6GHz in non-US regulatory domains (Wi-Fi 6E APs)

Known issues

• Sporadic packet loss & instability on Layer 3 roaming & Teleworker VPN SSID's (Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E APs)

Auto upgrade to this version from 31.1.4 scheduled by Meraki for me only one hour and fifteen minutes after the release announcement!

And... it works 😎 

Back to Meraki simplicity now, though the upgrade option of minimising client downtime rebooted the second AP in the house before the first was ready to serve clients...  You can't have everything!
