lemons 2 Posted October 3, 2020 Will this fix the issue off devices going of line multiple times a day and loss of internet WiFi and lan . I’m getting fed up with rebooting and reconnecting devices Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottBot 5 Posted October 3, 2020 September 18th you said the same thing to me Fraser, why not just share exactly what the issues are? After this Firmware is released, will we still need to preform reboots or factory resets each week or even like some have said everyday? Can you tell us that this will be something that is being worked on, that the stability of the R2 will be fixed and we will be able to use it longer than a day or even just a few hours before it breaks down? Another question, if it turns out to be a problem with hardware, would you tell us and issue a recall so they all could be fixed or refunded? I really hope you fix that wifi, but along with the wifi I hope you guys get the R2 to run longer than a few hours, then maybe the wifi could be useful if the R2 actually was useful in itself. Really looking forward to the Firmware.........Cheers Net Squad see you next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m getting fed up with rebooting and reconnecting devices It should be more stable yes. I have sent you a PM in the meantime, please see if that helps. 26 minutes ago, ScottBot said: September 18th you said the same thing to me Fraser, why not just share exactly what the issues are?

There won't be a problem with the hardware so that wouldn't be necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was really wondering if it was that or my internet and then I have a pc that all of a sudden wants to say connected with no internet access and will need a reboot that’s hardwired.

Could still be your connection so worth double checking. Sent PM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TannedBum 4 Posted October 4, 2020 Hello. I hope you could release a firmware version with the WLAN turned off completely and this version would be released faster than standard firmware update.I'm sure i'm not the only one that does not use WLAN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many people use Wi-Fi and releasing two versions of firmware by compiling a new one without the Wi-Fi drivers would probably take longer to create than just releasing new firmware including wireless drivers. Its simpler just to switch Wi-Fi off if you don't use it rather than create a new forked version. Hang in a new version will arrive soon I'm sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, welcome to the forum! As above it is not very practical, just turn the WiFi off if you don't want to use it. There are also non WiFi related fixes etc that we're putting in as well.

And i don't mean just turn it off, i mean cut it completely from the UI as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not like the WLAN isn't prolonging the release right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be unnecessary work when there is an off button built in already. 1 Killhippie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
