Hi,

Will the following devices running 6.2 RC2 be capable of at least 50% of their Speedfusion throughput as rated for 6.2 ?

Balance 305 HW1
Balance 380 HW1-5
Balance 580 HW1
Balance 710 HW1-2
Balance 1350 HW1

Thx
Dana

Hi Dana,

You are good to go if the minimum requirement is at least 50% of Speedfusion throughput.

@gradywhite

B710 6.3.0 only affects HW1-2 in which case RC would be used. You may use GA version for your HW rev 3:

How can someone determine the HW of a Balance Router as I see nothing on the label indicating this?

Hi,

Please refer to the knowledge base thread below to get the hardware version for the Balance router.

If I have no access to the unit, can I find out by calling with serial number ?

22

Hi,

The easier way to know the router hardware revision is to login to the device and check.

Possible to let us know why you don’t have access for the router ? Seem you don’t have the router access, why you still need to know the hardware revision ?

Thank You
