Updates

How often and when does the system do an update? I've just updated PWFirbank to 20191119, will it now auto update?

Hi Peter,

Once updated to anything newer than 20191008, the OGN-R software carries out automatic checks and updates at regular intervals as long as it has access to the internet.

There seems to have been quite a lot of updates since Christmas, just how often do they come out?

Hi Peter,

Generally not that often, but Lee & Co have been working on a number of updates and improvements to the system over the last few weeks/months, hence the higher than usual frequency of updates to the network. Not my place to say what exactly and in any case I only know the outline

It's not been a problem but I've been having a few issues with the Firbank receiver which is using WiFi to connect and as a couple of posts have been about WiFi issues I wondered if this was the cause. It's back up now so I'll see how it goes. As I'm in Morecambe and Firbank is in Sedbergh, it's not possible to visit the site.

Hi all
Yes a lot of recent improvements have gone in
The only change to wifi is that it can now he set up during the config if desired

Thx

...Though presumably the update that introduced the ‘incorporated WiFi’ facility will have overwritten Peter’s Manual WiFi config for PWFirbank (at Sedbergh) - or am I mistaken? If it has overwritten Peter’s config, if he reruns the (new) config script and inputs his WiFi settings again will future updates automatically retain his settings?

Any. change to wifi would only be made by running the config script
