I need to make a NanoBeam compatible with a regular WI-FI connection. I have the firmware installed but cannot get it to save any config changes after reboot. Once I have that figured out I will need to get Luci installed. Any help would be appreciated. I am using the newest firmware from the site.
What version are you installing, "newest" doesn't really tell us anything ?
There was a bug causing settings not to be saved

Try 23.03.5. You will likely need to TFTP recover to stock firmware and repeat the whole install process. That is because the bugged firmware can't write anything to flash, including new firmware.
There's generally no need to use snapshots in production on older hardware.
