I'm at my wits end with this issue... I've got a Bullet M2 that I updated the AirOS to the latest version, and then downloaded and flashed the proper firmware from the website with the TFTP. Everything came up fine, but in Trial mode. Purchased professional activation, showed activated on the website. Copied coped into activation screen on router, clicked activate. It looks like it was working, then it flashed "Invalid Code" real quick and rebooted, wiping the config. Tried this a dozen or so times, reflashed router with same version, no change. Tried to rollback to AirOS via TFTP method (put Bullet in recovery mode, TFTP PUT proper firmware, device rebooted after it processed the firmware) and now it will not respond to ping or post. If I put it in recovery mode again, it responds to 192.168.1.20, but it won't respond to ping on any other address, and I'm pissed.

I spend the money on the activation and it failed, and I followed the instructions to revert to factory OS and it failed... what should I do now?

Have you found an answer to this problem?

I just installed DD-WRT on a Bullet M2 a few days ago, and am trying to activate the full license without success.

I have not yet given up. If I don't find a solution soon I might.

Hello, I have the same problem with RocketM5. I installed the BETA version of DD-WRT and gets the exact same possible that the problem - I can not go back firmware UBNT ........ TFTP does not help. I had the intention to buy DD-WRT, but now it appears that I have broken Rocket M5 or at least allow me to restore the original firmvare.100% and others will eat this tree. What we do from now on, my dear specialists from DD-WRT

Since I am not getting anywhere with DD-Wrt, and I could not back out to stock Ubiquiti firmware, I've opted to install OpenWRT on my Bullet M2 for the time being.
