Hi, Bill:

  Re: Remote 'hard reset'

  You are correct.

  The Ubiquiti Power Switch can be power cycled only in-person.
This requires access to the room, but not the device on the tower.
I have 2 PSs at MVHS and have not, yet, needed a roof visit.

  The issue at DARA may be related to the bullet +/- AirGrid only or,
for whatever reason, DARA may be a problem that only individual cables 
will solve.

!?

  I am not opposed to pulling more cables.
