AREDN Release Notes v3.19.3.0 – 23 March 2019
The AREDN team is pleased to announce the general availability of the latest stable release of AREDN firmware.
Since our last stable release just 6 months ago, the AREDN team has made significant progress. We now fully support 55 devices from three manufacturers, and support an additional 4 devices with some cautions. This diversity of supported equipment enables hams to choose the right gear for a given situation and budget.
Our documentation has been vastly improved. If you haven't seen it recently, please look at the --ONLINE DOCS -- link under the Docs tab on the Main Menu bar. Our documentation is available to download as a PDF so that you can read it offline at your convenience.

- Current AREDN nightly builds can be loaded onto any supported (or ‘in testing’) Ubiquiti device by using the TFTP method. If the version of AirOS is v5.5 or lower, then the AirOS Web Interface may be used to load AREDN. The bootloader provided with AirOS 5.6 and higher will check for official “signed Ubiquiti firmware”...
