StarOS v1.13.3b5-3879 ready for testing

[tony]

Changes between v1.13.3b4 and v1.13.3b5:
New: CPU Load % indicator is now shown on the user interface.
Update: Small Agere & Prism 2/2.5 support update.
Fixed: Choosing an Atheros country code that does not support the mode you currently have enabled while acting as an AP will no longer
cause your system to hang on bootup.
Fixed: TX Power selection on Atheros cards now function as expected.

To enable Atheros support, you can purchase an Atheros-enabled key from your reseller, or online via www.license-keys.com. All Server keys include the Atheros license. Do not generate a key that is locked to an Atheros card, as the key itself determines if the Atheros support is activated.

Atheros cards tested: D-Link DWL-AB520, DWL-AG520, DWL-G520, Proxim 8482-WD
Cards reported to work: WG311 (802.11G)

Any and all comments are welcome.

are you using an essid longer then 19 characters?

If i use anything longer then my system freezes.

Bjorn.

[radev]

YES, i was using a ESSID of something like 32 characters, i changed it into exact 19 and it is working.

anly now i have a new problem, in the name of my previous ESSID i did put information where to find info to get an account on my system. now they can not find this.
(ESSID was my internet site)


Why did this work in previous versions of STAROS en not in this one??

[lonnie]

That will get fixed right away. :D :D :D :D

Thanks for digging into it. The system is supposed to allow 32 characters but we only test with short ones. It worked at one time, so now we will have to make a test with the longer names.

[bwbboot]

this is really good. it has been a frustating issue so far....
Now i can start updating 3 stations here.... and use all new features so far..

[radev]

You have more stations? and change all of them to short names??

i can do that to, but users can't find my site to create an account, so i prefer long names.

We will be releasing a new version later today that will resolve this problem.

Thanks to all who helped track down the cause!

[tony]

The latest release solves the essid problem you are seeing.

Thanks!
