I have a couple of node types to update to the 3.16.1.1 version, so I downloaded the ones I needed, but I renamed them so I could easily see which file went to which node type.
When I tried to update, the node wouldn't take the file.
I checked the hash when I downloaded, but figured I'd just get a new copy, which uploaded just fine.
I compared the hashes, and they were the same.
So, I take it there is a file name verification for upload, in addition to or instead of other verification methods?
I thought this had worked previously, but it's been a while, so I can't be sure. Perhaps it was loading AREDN onto stock hardware.
Cheers.
You can't rename the files (for upgrades). The AREDN firmware expects them in a certain naming convention.
Bit of a bummer as it's hard to remember which file goes to which type; for some of them anyway.
ie.
/AREDN_firmware/Rocket/<blah>.bin
/AREDN_firmware/Nanostation XW/<blah2>.bin
/AREDN_firmware/AirRouter/<blah3>.bin
Don't mind the whinge.
Thanks much.
