Important
When we initially released the 2.5 version of the firmware, we added a new bit OkToMqtt to packets to express the intent of users to opt-in to their packets being uplinked to an MQTT broker.
Prior to this, uplinking of packets was just implicit fact, which was not fair to users wishing to remain off of any public brokers, maps, etc. However, in order to not immediately begin dumping all of the traffic from previous firmware versions from going to MQTT, we allowed for a grace period to transition folks to the newer 2.5.X firmware, where they can now opt-in, or remain off (by default). This grace period has concluded. The firmware will now enforce that the OkToMqtt bit is both present and opted into before uplinking any packets to MQTT.
