2026-03-06 r7660

• Kernel & system updates — Updated kernel to 6.12.74, mac80211 to 6.12.61, python3 to 3.13.9 with related packages (PAM-based auth replacing deprecated spwd), and system version to 26.04, fixed several CVEs.
• Fibocom FM350-GL 5G modem support — Full support including signal strength, temperature monitoring, IMEI, carrier/operator display, serving cell info, roaming preference, 4G/5G network mode and band selection, WWAN power off toggle via rfkill, network stats tracking, and hex-encoded operator name decoding.
• SMS reliability — Switched to PDU mode for all modems, fixed FM350-GL serial port handling, prompt detection, and response timeouts.
• Web terminal — Added web-based terminal (/terminal) with persistent PTY sessions, fullscreen toggle, disconnect/reconnect, JetBrains Mono font, and mobile viewport optimization.
• Direct Power Mode & TCP BBR v3 — Added power-on mode options for battery-free and quick-response applications (auto power-on when adapter connected, no battery required). Added TCP BBR v3 support with congestion control configuration in General Settings.
• Battery history & power event logging — Battery history chart with SQLite storage, fixed voltage scale, area fill, watt display, and power on/off event timeline. Persistent power event logging with voltage, current, SOC data, and DC plug/unplug tracking.
• Idle & low battery shutdown — Live idle shutdown countdown timer, low battery shutdown support, WiFi client idle monitoring (OR mode), battery-only auto-shutdown option, and 2% SOC tolerance for SOC estimation jumps.
• General Settings & timer page redesign — New General Settings page with language, timezone, hostname, and LuCI sync. Redesigned timer page with modern split-panel layout, compact full-width panes, and clarified Car/UPS mode descriptions.
• Dashboard & header improvements — Active WAN shown first, public IPv6 detection, modem temperature display, 5G/4G indicator in network icon row, status-aware rendering, gateway underline, and optimized mobile header layout.
• Performance & UI/UX polish — Native Python ubus/uci wrappers, non-blocking IO caching, CPU powersave disabling big cores (A72), 3-month static asset caching, temperature and wattage charts, tab state preserved across refresh, single-language notifications, improved icons, Wiki and Community footer buttons, smart phone formatting, and verbose firmware upgrade progress.

2026-06-15 r7714

• Kernel & system updates — Updated kernel to 6.12.91, fixed some recent critical security problems. Updated mac80211 to 6.18.26. fixed several CVEs.
• OpenWRT base system - Updated base system and LuCI to 25.12. Added IEEE80211.BE support (Allow to enable 6GHz channels on QCNCM865 and MT7925).
• Smart WAN (WiFi-as-WAN) — New Smart WAN mode turns the onboard radio into an upstream WiFi client with automatic Ethernet → WiFi → Cellular failover. Phone-like auto-reconnect to known upstream WiFi, robust scan-device resolution, and a confirmation dialog before switching. The disabled STA radio is shown correctly with a dedicated "WAN (WiFi)" status.
• WiFi 7 (802.11be) & WPA3 — Added WiFi 7 (BE) and WPA3-SAE support for PCIe cards, with correct htmode/channel handling for 5GHz BE and 6GHz BE, PCIe card-name detection, and normalized encryption values in the UI.
• Dashboard & header improvements — Active egress is now highlighted live (only the active WAN row lights up); exposes WiFisignal, active egress, and network mode; status-aware network icons with gateway underline, accurate WAN underline, red-cross for disabled links, and tooltips. Added public IPv6 / public-IP aliases.
• Battery & charge control — Added a battery charge-limit slider (80–100%) on the Device Control page, made charge-limit the single source of truth, fixed the battery icon to show the true charge percentage, and robustly default to 100% when never set.
• Screen visual editor — New Figma-style visual layout editor for the device display, merged with the JSON view into a single Editor tab. Add/remove pages, per-element position reset, center & snap tools, reset-layout, live JSON diff, label/data-key canvas toggle, and a coordinate fix mapping editor coords to the device content region. Fixed the graph element type rendering on device.
• Screen custom data sources — Added custom metrics (command / uci / env / json_file / HTTPS) in the editor with on-device examples, one-click Save & Restart, live value preview on Refresh, duplicate-key warnings, clearer data_key guidance, Gold/AAPL examples via the official Photonicat market API, and flicker-free live preview.
• Device Control & network modes — Reordered network modes with composite WAN icons; consolidated the charge-limit setting onto the Device Control page.
• FM350-GL roaming — Enabled automatic roaming via AT+COPS=0 and hid the unenforceable "no roaming" option; fixed band selection being overwritten by polling refresh; removed the USB 3.12 10Gbps option that caused LAN/WAN failures.
• Security hardening — Added a socketio_auth_required decorator for WebSocket endpoints, added auth to /switch_locale and low-battery-shutdown routes, and removed unused/over-permissioned API endpoints.
• Performance — Reduced idle CPU usage (file-only logging by default, fewer select wakeups and uci forks), cached data_stats.json and aligned dashboard caching to the display poll, dropped a no-op screen thread, and read WWAN rfkill state directly from sysfs.
• Mini-display performance — Major CPU reduction on the display loop (static-page CPU ~3.2% → ~1.4%, roughly 55% less): skip re-render/SPI blit on unchanged frames via a data-epoch gate, byte-compare before transferring pixels, and halve polling cadences. Fonts (incl. the ~37MB CJK collection) are now parsed once and cached/preloaded, and network lookups (wireless SSID, iwinfo client enumeration, public IP) are cached to cut process forks (~3.8/s → ~1.7/s).

2026-06-16 r7715

• Mini-display SPI clock reliability — Lowered the display SPI clock from 120 MHz to 50 MHz to eliminate visual glitches or display problems at the higher rate; the conservative timing trades a negligible refresh-latency increase for a stable, artifact-free image.
• Serial-number validation fix — Valid device serials were incorrectly shown as (invalid) on-device because the signature check depended on the cryptography module, which is not installed on the target OpenWrt image.
