News & releases
What's changed, release by
release — the member-facing highlights, not a full changelog. Two
separate tracks: the hub (this network's shared portal/bridge,
updated centrally, nothing for you to do) and node software
(what runs on your own Raspberry Pi, also pushed automatically).
Hub & network
Pushed live by the
operator — no action needed on your end.

Latest
September 6, 2026
Real login pages, guest directory, password reset
- Admin and the allmon3 status page now use a proper login page instead of a browser popup.

v1.4
September 5, 2026
