I tried it on my HD2-MBX and Max Pro BR2 where each has a Starlink Terminal and it says Starlink Outage (Okay)
I had to back down to 8.4.

[Steve_Mitchell]

I had the same issue and reverted back to 8.4.1

[Luke_Morgan]

Lai - Y’all are welcome to access my HD2-MBX and troubleshoot this if you need.
My wife is streaming off the BR2, so please don’t load new code/reboot that one.
My account is under Zenith Communications.

I have the same Starlink Outage (Okay) error on a B20X… went back to beta3.

[Jonathan_Pitts]

Same I can’t use it, it says starlink outage (Okay).
But thank you for this!
32665 [RC1][CLI]
AddedCLIsupport forbcreating/deleting clientsbandbgenerating/brevokingtokens All Models.

Create/Delete client and generate/revoke token from CLI

We would like to request the ability to Create/Delete client and generate/revoke token from CLI. The current method is Authentication - with Admin User account POST /api/login Create Client /api/auth.client Generate token /api/auth.token.grant Revoke token /api/auth.token.revoke Delete client Then you can use Authentication - with Client ID for additional transcations. You also have to renew the token every 48 hours. The Router supports CLI SSH Access Public Key [image] Public…

This will allow us to more securely interact with creating tokens, well done team peplink!

Also I’m excited to test this as well.
32693 [RC1][Starlink]Fixed the issue of Starlink WAN being shown as connected without an active account.
I reported that we need the ability to still access starlink.com , but mark the wan as down when the account is either inactive or outside of the location, i.e. fixed plan when traveling.

[Luke_Morgan]

I didn’t see the option to revert back to beta 3, so I went to 8.4. I just got a new Standard Gen 3 Starlink and haven’t taken it out of the box. I will pair that with a BR2 a customer of mine bought off Amazon and test 8.5 RC1 again next week. I’m trying to get a couple BR1 5GN Pros from another customer to also test with, I will probably just synergize those once they have the latest code and hang them off the HD2 MBX.

[Lewis_Kong]

Thank you for reporting the Starlink WANs outage issue.
We have confirmed that the problem was caused by a recent update in version 8.5.0RC1. We will address this and provide a fix in the next 8.5.0 RC.

[Jonathan_Pitts]

@Lewis_Kong Thank you!

All clients still type ‘unknown’ for me in local web interface client list (B One)

Post here:

B One all clients are type 'Unknown' in client list

Clients have always all been ‘Unknown’ in the client list for me (Firmware 8.4.1). Setting manually gives an ‘Update is not support at this moment’ error but hovering over MAC address resolves the vendor so something is working. Firmware 8.5.0 RC 1 release notes looked promising so upgraded - unfortunately no change… |32699| [RC 1] [System] Fixed an issue where the client type was displayed as “unknown” in the client list |All Models| Anyone have this working on a B One or any advice please? …

I was mistaken.I was looking at the wrong BR2 Pro…

Where’s the IPv6 support?
