What's Changed

• Numerous installer fixes and improvements

Full Changelog: 3.0.1...3.0.2

Version 3.0.1

This maintenance and feature release brings several new options to the Quick installer:

-t, --token <accesstoken>
-n, --name <username>
-d, --update
-p, --path <path>

Updates, rather than full upgrades, are faster and easier to perform. A smoother path to upgrading to Insiders is also provided.

What's Changed

• Improves installer with an --update switch and GitHub user/token auth by @billz in #1457

Full Changelog: 3.0...3.0.1

Version 3.0

This release extends 802.11ac 5 GHz support to allowed wireless regulatory domains (countries) and compatible hardware. See the previous 3.0-beta release for details. A default wlan1 configuration is added to simplify hosting an AP with an external adapter. Bootstrap validation is now used for required fields as well as an input mask for IP addresses. Several style tweaks and UI refinements are included.

What's Changed

• Refactor ISO countries + create IW parsing class by @billz in #1443
• Style tweaks for modal dialog by @billz in #1454
• Define/set default subnet for wlan1 by @billz in #1452
• Custom Bootstrap form validation for required fields by @billz in #1450

Full Changelog: 1.0...3.0

Version 3.0-beta

This release substantially changes how RaspAP interacts with wireless-regdb, the regulatory database used by the Linux kernel. RaspAP's internal wireless.json db is retired in favor of tighter integration with the kernel.

Selecting a country in the Hotspot > Advanced tab now sets the wireless regulatory domain with iw. Another nicety is the country select is populated with isoquery, which is more comprehensive and has locale support. Configuring an AP now correctly sets the VHT center frequency segment value depending on the channel.

The end result is users are able to select their own country, rather than pick from a narrow list of 5 GHz supported ones, and configure an 802.11ac AP using channels supported by both the Linux kernel and hostapd.

tl;dr: 802.11ac support for everyone — if your country (and hardware) permits it 😉

Bug fixes, a minor enhancement and a security patch are included.
