this looks good in general. Somebody else should have a look at the network config, as this is the first non-wa ubnt device set up with rgmii-id.

Apart from that, please use "ubnt-powerbeam-m-xw" for the compatible. This is in line with the other xw devices, and actually it would have been better for the xm devices as well in the first place, so I don't count "There is no 'xm' powerbeam" as an argument :-)

Best

Adrian
