New firmware release - 0.9.7.b1

[Roosted]

I would really like to see 802.1x (WPA Enterprise authentication) support in the WiFi stack!
Are there any plans for that in the near feature?

Without this username & password authentication, I can not use it on Eduroam.. :(

Is there a timeframe for BLE? I need it for a deployment in the next few months. A fully integrated solution is better (lower power) than stacking, but the timing matters.

@jasonriedy, @leogaggl According to this post https://forum.pycom.io/topic/351/update-week-commencing-5th-december firmware with BLE support should be available at 16th December.

Was there any official firmware release after 0.9.7.b1.

I am just curious to know the progress BLE stack, is it expected to get relased on 16th Dec release.

Thanks & Regards,

@RSK No, there wasn't. Everybody is waiting for upcoming Friday (Dec 16th). In a matter of BLE stack progress I hope someone from Pycom will respond.

@rskoniec Espressif released the IDF 1.0 last week which includes BLE and WiFi coexistence. We are working on integrating it and it's planned for release next Friday.

Hello Abilio,
what do you mean with "Lora compliance test?
Is it the test mode which is required for Lora certification?

• Update the LoRa stack and add LoRa compliance test.

Best regards

Yes, that's exactly what it is.
