Meshtastic Firmware Status Checker
Check if meshtastic firmware has been updated, Changelogs, keep your node up to date
Open Source Development
NOTE: Meshtastic is still very much a development project and most of the firmware and software are Beta or Alpha versions. Unless you are prepared to be part of the bleeding edge development testing stick to the more stable versions. You can always ask around in the Discord user groups to see what others with the same device are using and their experience. We recommend keeping your node to at least the latest Beta release.
IMPORTANT
⚠
Meshtastic Firmware older than version 2.3 is causing issues on meshtastic and doesn't report hops so gives a fake zero hop to other nodes. PLEASE UPDATE
Meshtastic 2.5 introduces Public Key Cryptography
NOTE: Meshtastic Firmware 2.5 onwards introduces Increased security for private message and remote admin using PKC (Public Key Cryptography) Pole1 live node report now shows a 🔒 Padlock on the same row as nodes that have ≥ 2.5.0 Firmware to indicated they have broadcast a public key.
Zero Hops away
NOTE: Meshtastic Android and CLI 2.5.1 onwards can now differentiate a True 0 Hops away from a 0/Unknown which is really useful Go To blog post I have edited my code so that the nodes report and node map now shows if 0 hop count or ? which means unknown I have also changed the SNR chart so it only shows SNR for true zero hop nodes.
