DreamPi 1.2 Released!

This is a bug fix release:

  • Pi to Modem communication now uses a fixed-baud speed. This will hopefully fix some issues that people were having sending commands to the modem but I'm not sure.
  • Earlier disconnection. The software now disconnects from the modem as soon as the handover to PPP is complete, this should allow for a faster disconnect/reconnect cycle when you finish a game and avoid the DreamPi software interfering with PPP.
  • More reliable startup. Occasionally there was an error on startup while detecting the modem. Now this will be caught and will fall back to ttyACM0 rather than crashing. A better fix would be to wait until the modem is ready - this will happen in a later release.
You can download the new release here.
