Gluon 2018.1.2 ============== Bugfixes ~~~~~~~~ * Fix a bug leading to missing IPv6 addresses in respondd announcements (`#1523 `_) The pattern that was used to match addresses from /proc/net/if_inet6 did not expect interface indexes growing past two characters. * Mark ipq806x target as broken for unstable client WiFi (`#1505 `_) Station connections to the QCA9880 radio on the TP-Link C2600s are frequently disconnected, leading to an abysmal user experience. * Fix button behaviour on FRITZ!Box 4020 (`#1544 `_) Buttons were triggering an instant reboot into config mode, fix by setting buttons to active low instead of active high. * Prevent caching of redirects on config mode and status page (`#1530 `_) As the path to both config mode and status page were changed between versions users could be affected by a redirect to a no more valid URL. * batman-adv has received two bugfixes, which were `backported `_ from v2018.4 Other changes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Linux kernel has been updated to v4.4.153 Known issues ~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Missing kernel module dependencies prevent batman-adv from being loaded on devices without WiFi drivers (`#1578 `_) * Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (`#94 `_) Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended. * The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (`#496 `_) This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed). * Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 `_) The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while. * Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory or high load due to memory pressure on weak hardware specially in larger meshes (`#1243 `_) Optimizations in Gluon 2018.1 have significantly improved memory usage. There are still known bugs leading to unreasonably high load that we hope to solve in future releases.
