« Hi Betatesters! 2.2.5.0 rc1 is here
The Fonera 2.0 ENDUSER is here! Buy it now! »

RC2 is here and is better than RC1

Your feedback was so useful and that’s why we’re releasing fon-ng 2.2.5.0 RC2. It’s gonna be, very likely, the last release candidate. But this time we want to make sure it works as good as it can, because the Endusers are coming! yes, Arpil 21st is the date!

This is the bugfix / new features list:

  • Facebook uploader is here! You can now add as many pictures as you want to facebook. I used it 2 and I’m already the biggest image uploader of all my friends!
  •  Picasa uploader fixed! it used to crash with many pictures to upload. Not any more!
  • Static DHCP leases…
  • All icons are now alligned and look better :P We also like design ;)
  • 3G connectivity has been reworked and has more options now.
  • Picasa and Youtube applications now check your password and let you know if it’s wrong
  • The FONBackup page has been redesigned. Now you can browse the content of your backup to make sure it’s all in there!
  • The password bug has been fixed, yes.
  • Added nice icons on the File browser to directly upload pictures and videos to picasa, flickr, facebook and youtube. Nice hack
  • WiFi-WAN now works better. It didn’t work with some routers before…

Give us any feedback you can think of: we’re happy to get more than we need and filter it ;)

We hope you enjoy this image during easter!

The images

P.S.: once again, thanks to all the team, especially John ;)

    what should twitter say?
    * “user X” has just signed on your fonera
    * Your Fonera has just rebooted
    * … other suggestions?

    btw WAN GUI/SSH works on RC2 (RC1 it didn’t)…I use it all the time
    registration doesn’t even work on the Fonera+ (unless you live in UK)
    it’s just a “1″ value in /etc/config/registered

    please ssh to it and vi /etc/config/registered
    and replace 0 by 1 :-)

    So - I can see how I can tell it to use the default DNS or not on the new 3g settings screen - but where do I actually enter the correct DNS that it should be using?
    This is all because 3 UK send you a bad DNS server in the DHCP information
