Changelog here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’ll highlight the interesting bits:<\/p>\n

What’s new in 5.0beta2 (2010-Apr-30 11:35):<\/p>\n

*) added wireless distance setting, removed ack-timeout;
\n*) improved 802.11 operation for outdoor distances;
\n<\/strong>
\nThis is terrific. Ubiquiti has had a slider for this in their GUI for a while now. You slide it to your distance and it automatically adjusts ack times and other optimizations. A good bit of recon on this one!<\/p>\n
