 +
 +==== Release corrections ====
 +
 +  * Fix LoRa demodulator (SX130x) counter overflow and time synchronization
 +  * Fix application of LBT and beaconing configuration by LNS in Basic Station packet forwarder for Wirnet iFemtoCells and iStations
 +  * Fix beaconing activation by LNS in Basic Station packet forwarder
 +
 +==== Evolutions ====
 +
 +  * Keep the default generic operator configuration for cellular Wirnet iZepto-cell only
 +  * Update the [[wiki:​network_mana:​backhaul#​cellular_configuration|default APN list]] to reduce the need to configure the cellular backhaul
 +  * Detect when a [[wiki:​network_mana:​backhaul#​cellular_configuration|SIM is present but not operational]]
 +  * Select the best active antenna to transmit downlinks depending on radio performances in a [[wiki:​lora:​cpf_configuration#​lorad_configuration|2x8channels Wirnet iBTS]] Compact configuration
 +
 +==== Restrictions =====
 +  *** IPSec is not yet supported **
 +  * Some issues with the Wi-Fi interface (instabilities,​ no fallback...) on Wirnet iFemtoCell
 +  * When upgrading from KerOS firmware 4.x, all trustzone secrets are lost
 +  * When upgrading from KerOS FW 4.3.3, a hardware reset is necessary for FW 5.x burner to correctly detect USB
