New iGate release: v21.10.0

After months of development I can finally say that the new iGate version arrived today (21.10.0).

You can find the code in the github repository in the master branch. Please feel free to create bug-tickets with the correct type. Thanks to all bug reporters! Please keep the good work :)

What is new

  • a complete re-design of the iGate firmware.
  • automatic board detection!
  • redesigned the config file for simpler configuration.
  • simpler way of showing information on the OLED.
  • simpler handling from future tasks because of a task handler.
  • removed Digi mode as it will move into his own repository/project.

What is NOT new

  • no new features - from the user perspective everything should be the same like before.

What is tested and what is not tested

  • I tested the firmware on a simple TTGO LoRa32 v1 board and on my Ethernet Board.
