Gluon 2020.2.1
==============
Added hardware support
----------------------
- Added support for TP-Link CPE210 3.20 (`#2080 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2080>`_)
Bugfixes
--------
- Fixed handling of *mesh_on_lan* enabled in site configuration (`#2090 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/2090>`_)
- Fixed build issues with lantiq-xrx200 target by removing unsupported DSL modem packages (`#2087 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/pull/2087>`_)
Other changes
-------------
- Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.193
- Backports of batman-adv bugfixes
Known issues
------------
* Upgrading EdgeRouter-X from versions before v2020.1.x may lead to a soft-bricked state due to bad blocks on the
NAND flash which the NAND driver before this release does not handle well.
(`#1937 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1937>`_)
* The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.
- Mesh neighbors don't appear on the status page. (`#1726 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1726>`_)
Many tools have the BATMAN_IV metric hardcoded, these need to be updated to account for the new throughput
metric.
- Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types.
(`#1728 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1728>`_)
This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.
* Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown
(`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
* In configurations not using VXLAN, the MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled
(`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is
disallowed).
