WARNING: this release has broken i2c and is not recommended.
Workaround issue with virtual EEPROM not loading correctly
- Improve Serial Console and Dying Gasp handling
** IMPORTANT Reminder **
There are now 2 variants of the firmware:
- bfw - This is based on the same Azores/BFW firmware as all releases before 2.0.0 (now based on 1.0.19).
- basic - This is based on the much cleaner Potrontec firmware and implements a custom LuCi based WebUI. I now recommend this version for all users. This variant has no root password by default, set it under System > Administration in the WebUI
Upgrade Instrstructions
If on Azores/BFW firmware, use local-upgrade.img
in the WebUI. If on 2.1.0 or higher, local-upgrade.tar
can also be used from the 8311-firmware-upgrade.sh
cli tool.
If on the Basic firmware variant, use local-upgrade.tar
in the WebUI or CLI tool. If already on a version before 2.1.0, a manual update will be required.
Note: You can switch between firmware variants using these upgrade methods, both firmware variants are fully compatible with one another.
