Changes

Happy New Year!

tch-gui-unhide

• Added ability to enable/disable NTP server (#54)
• Do not show option to send the router as the client time (NTP) server via DHCP if NTP server disabled (#54)
• Changed chart card processing so that you can show/hide cards from the Management Theme tab (#53) (previously you could only show/hide the charts you selected during installation with the -C option)
• Added ability to add custom DNS server IP addresses on LAN screen, in addition to the ipv4/6-DNS-Servers files optional processing (#55)
• Added ability to select known DNS servers on Custom DNS Screen
• Added support for intercepting IPv6 DNS queries (using a transparent proxy instead of NAT, because IPv6 NAT needs a kernel module that these devices do not have)
• Added Resident Set Size and memory percentage to Management Process Viewer tab
• Added new experimental option (-m) to reduce GUI code size by approximately 21% to try and improve performance
• Reworked cards that took a relatively long time to render and changed them to background load their status displays to improve perceived performance
• Fixed broken acme-ipsec.sh
• Fixed bridged mode detection on booster device
• Fixed bug that prevented changing of SIP Network Interface
• Removed option to create multiple SIP Networks (because support for multiple SIP Networks is broken: https://hack-technicolor.readthedocs.io/en/stable/Unlock/#unlocking-the-option-to-setup-a-second-sip-network)

de-telstra

• Disabled CWMP and WiFi-Doctor in WAN Sensing failover helper
• Bypass check for telstra.hybrid APN when failing over VoIP to WWAN

• Added new QoS tab to allow bandwidth shaping on a per-MAC address basis (#47), and to eliminate buffer bloat

Changes

tch-gui-unhide

• Added "Voice on Failover" switch to Telephony Global tab and Mobile Auto-Failover tab to allow SIP Network interface to switch automatically between WAN and WWAN on failover/failback
• Disabled changing of SIP Network interface when WAN Sensing enabled (because WAN Sensing maintains the SIP Network interface)
• Moved DNS Servers from Internet Access to new card, and migrated custom DNS servers configured on network interfaces to dnsmasq, so that custom DNS servers are applied consistently across connection modes (including mobile connections #47)
• The WoL over Internet fix for FW 20.3.c was not applied to the new card helper that was introduced in v2021.09.27
• Fixed SMS transformer mapping in FW 17.2
• Fixed DDNS error detection in FW 17.2

Changes

tch-gui-unhide

• Fix for random "attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'o1' (a string value)" errors on Telephony card
  I have not been able to reproduce this error, but it has been reported by 3 users, 2 of whom subsequently resolved the problem by reinstalling Release 2021.09.01. However, this change should prevent it happening in any event.

The tch-gui-unhide platform releases now match the major (marketing) firmware release (i.e. 17.2, 18.1.c and 20.3.c), rather than being sub-version (e.g. 17.2.0284 or 18.1.c.0585) specific.

If you are currently on a tch-gui-unhide release prior to 2021.06.25, you will NOT be able to use the ./tch-gui-unhide -U command to update to this release. You will need to run this command instead:
