2012-04-29 - added an "updates" folder to opkg config file. This allows deploying updates to a released HAMNET build. 2012-04-15 - hamnet package: Link broadcast is limited to TTL=1 to avoid having it routed into "the Cloud" with some setups (multiple subnets on same physical medium). 2012-04-08 - fixed erroneous start of multiple qosmon instances - introduced additional delay during wifi startup sequence before starting hostapd. This did fail somethines. - ath5k kernel module: support negative channel numbers (enable 2312-2412MHZ range). Regdomain needs adaption to limit access and hostapd needs to be adapted to support negative channel numbers before it is usable! Likely also STA mode kernel code requires adaption. 2012-04-07 - Busybox Makefile did not work with newer make (3.82?) versions. (DL7RAY) 2012-04-05 - fixed broken symlink from /bin/tar -> /usr/bin/tar 2012-04-03 - modified busybox to truncate file before remove (jffs2 can reclaim space that has been truncate()d but not files that have been unlink()ed. The latter requires a clean unmount/mount of the jffs2 partition -> ALIX reboot) 2012-04-02 - Moved SNMP persistence directory from /usr/lib to /var/lib to avoid eating up JFFS2 space with the snmp-exec-cache. - resized rootfs partition to 256MB 2012-02-26 - *** Release: backfire_10.03_HAMNET-R1.2 2012-02-26 - AgentX SNMP PLugin for H4L related data. 2011-12-23 - added IPv6 iptables & kernel netfilter module 2011-11-27 - added ne2k_pci Eth driver (for qemu use) 2011-11-18 - WLAN Tuning helper (RX level): http:/admin/tune.php 2011-11-06 - enabled radvd (IPv6 Routing advertisement), build as module 2011-11-05 - enabled IPV6 options, rebuilt quagga with ospf6d enabled To enable IPv6, edit /etc/sysctl.conf and remove the line "net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1" 2011-10-09 - luci wifi config: HAM callsign to MAC is now configurable in the WEB GUI 2011-06-06 - qosmon: truncate status file /tmp/qosmon.status.xxx to eliminate trailing garbage characters. 2011-06-06 - *** Release: backfire_10.03_HAMNET-R1.1 2011-06-02 - SNMP does now provide link info for all installed WLAN adapters (previously only wlan0) 2011-05-04 - remove "factory settings" from LuCI - too dangerous. 2011-04-21 - qos-scripts: added "qosmon" from gargoyle. qosmon does adaptively adjust the upper bandwidth limit in the QOS hfsc classes - this allows adaption to variable bandwidth links (like WLAN with adaptive TX rates) - luci-app-qos does support the new "dynamic QOS" options. 2011-04-20 - qos-scripts: fixed error in halfduplex processing 2011-04-19 - luci-app-qos: requires interface names - adapted default QOS config 2011-04-08 - disable 'poweroff' and 'halt' commands - only allow reboot. This should avoid accidental shutdown of the system... 2011-04-07 - better handling of setup if two WLAN NICs installed 2011-03-26 - included ethtool and bridge-utils packages 2011-02-06 - include kernel symbols - helpful in debugging kernel & driver issues 2011-01-23 - fixed Network Interfaces page (no/wrong MACs, no traffic counters shown) - by default enable STP on bridged ETH ports 2011-01-16 - added call2mac.lua script (encode HAMradio callsign in a MAC address) and adapted mac80211_ath5k to support it. Uses the config option (interface) "callsign". 2011-01-12 - optimized kernel for Geode CPU - support Geode hardware watchdog 2011-01-11 - enabled PACKAGE_ip, needed for IPIP tunnels - save /etc/openvpn/ during sysupgrade 2011-01-03 - added entry to About LuCI with DG7GT & HB9XAR - removed "rdate" section from System->System (we use ntpd) - HAMNET WLAN settings: introduce drop-down lists for some fields (ant-mode, channel-bw) - fixed list of available channels (did use "iwlist" which does cut of the list; using "iw info" now) - the BUSYBOX_TAR is shaky with directories (a directory without trailing slash ends up as symlink in the TAR archive, potentially causing problems when extracting (e.g. during a system upgrade, as seem by me). Switching to external GNU tar to a void these things. - include more details in list of active connections (such as port numbers, conntrack state and conntrack timeout) - cleanup in wireless driver detection (force mac80211_ath5k) 2011-01-02 - merged Luci patches from DG7GT - keep BUSYBOX_HTTP and don't go for uhttpd (reason: keep PHP) Newer (post OWRT 10.03 versions of uhttps seem to be able to add interpreters to handle this. - minor changes in sysupgrade handling (use the existing hook mechanism for backup of config files) - we use the luci-medium (lightweight expert-only) - exclude sda* in Luci Mount Points (dangerous) and also modified the example /etc/config/fstab file to point elsewhere - disabled BUSYBOX_RDATE 2010-12-27 - *** first release: backfire_10.03_HAMNET-R1.0 Naming scheme is: _HAMNET_ 2010-11-27 - adapted regulatory.bin (HB9 settings) on band edges 2010-11-19 - Better handling of SNMP requests in hamnet package 2010-09-01 - Modify default setting and disable IPv6 on all interfaces - ALIX3d2 does work with the same image :-) 2010-08-29 - upgraded OWRT base to Backfire (10.03, r20742) SVN revision: r20742 2010-08-19 - Long distance links with ACK enabled do work now. There seems to be an offset (dependent on the channel bandwith/rate) that must be compensated when fiddling with the T/O registers. 2010-08-02 - ability to disable L2 ACK mechanism (yes, this violates 802.11 and only works if all stations are Atheros & have this feature enabled! Uses an debugging feature of Atheros) 2010-08-01 - EIFS timing depends on slottime - needs to be set as well 2010-07-31 - have my own hostapd setup script (timing related things there as well: TXOP, AIFS timing in WME/WMM) 2010-07-26 - fixed parameter setting for long distance links (ath5k) - mac80211_ath5k.sh: use 'echo -n' for sysctl 2010-06-30 - added gpsd and kismet as options (addon modules) 2010-03-09 - ath5k: allow 5MHz channel raster for 5GHz (IARU Reg1 freq's) 2010-03-08 - added XA regdomain without PWR / DFS limitation in IARU Reg1 5GHz band (5650 - 5850); rest of 2.4/5GHz is HB9 limited. - /lib/iwfi/mac80211_ath5k.sh: set country before attempting anyhing else. Required to get WLAN up on non-US domains - fix for Oops on read /proc/sys/dev/phy0/info if the device phy0 was unititialized (WLAN down) 2010-02-21 - added socat & inetd to core image 2010-01-05 - add ntp.conf to list of files saved during sysupgrade - OpenWRT SVN revision: r18464
