• Set ip proto is now a bitmask. It is possible to have both UDP and TCP bits set. If TCP
enabled, UART RX data will be forwarded via TCP if a connection exists. Otherwise, data will
forward over UDP (if UDP bit is set ).
As of firmware version 2.07 6/04/2009
Command changes
• set wlan antenna < 0 or 1 >command has been changed to set wlan extant <0 or 1 >.
• set wlan auth <value> command has been added
• set wlan hide will hide the WEP key or WPA passkey. To unhide, you set key or passphrase
again.
• set ip proto 8 TCP client mode, (no listen server) only outbound connections can be made.
• Bug fixes
• Adhoc mode client associates properly
• You can now enter the WPA passkey after setting the SSID, previously the pass key had to be
entered first for the security hash to be correctly created.
• Auto join now stops after 3 retries.
Features
• show net now displays the wifi TX rate,and correctly displays authenticated state and shows
authentication mode that was used.
• ping h will ping the stored host address. If no host address stored, will attempt to use the
DNS hostname.
• ping i command added to ping a known Internet server (www.neelum.com) by first
resolving the address, proving that DNS is working and then pinging the server. This proves
the device has internet connectivity.
• UDP secure mode will only forward packets to the UART that match from the host address.
TCP secure mode will only allow connection from and IP that matches host address.
As of firmware version 2.06
• Web server interface is not available – Configuration over telnet and the UART
• UART flow control is not functional – The module may drop data at high data rates
• Sensor pins for reading analog signals are not supported
• Wake on UART RXD or CTS is not working on current revision REV2 of the SuRFBoard.
• The fast- autosleep timer for UDP mode is not implemented.
Fixes since fimware version 2.05
• Configuration over Telnet not functional
• Error checking the correct number of parameters
