Re: Radio discontinued?

That limitation was the source of one of the fatal flaws in the DLinks.

If the Manufacturer approves the new firmware, then it is ok to load.

Re: Radio discontinued?

My understanding from Beta testing is the FCR firmware really isn't custom. You can download it from AndyMark. The FRC version uses specific configuration profiles.

Re: Radio discontinued?

I really hope the replacement has a boot time of 10 seconds at most. Programming the routers for events this year took way longer than before.

Re: Radio discontinued?

The router's embedded web server is a major contributor to the boot time. If teams can live without a convenient web interface to the settings, perhaps it can be removed from the FRC-specific firmware.

Re: Radio discontinued?

That wouldn't be too bad if there was just a file to edit. The router config could also then be done by simply copying over the file.

Web server is essential to configuring the router when you can't get the software to work.

I don't see why they can't have the basic functionality of the router boot quickly, then let the webserver boot up in a parallel process.
