    ==============
    
    This is the first service release for the Gluon 2020.1.x line, fixing regressions reported by
    the community.
    
    Bugfixes
    --------
    
    - Fixed non-working LEDs on TP-Link Archer C5 v1 and Archer C7 v2 after an upgrade to Gluon 2020.1.
    
    - Fixed an issue which leads to AVM FRITZ!WLAN Repeater 450E devices being stuck in failsafe mode
      ater an upgrade to Gluon 2020.1.
    
    Other changes
    -------------
    
    - Linux kernel has been updated to 4.14.171
    
    Known issues
    ------------
    
    - Out of memory situations with high client count on ath9k.
      (`#1768 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1768>`_)
    
    - The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.
    
       - | Mesh neighbors don't appear on the status page. (`#1726 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1726>`_)
         | Many tools have the BATMAN_IV metric hardcoded, these need to be updated to account for the new throughput
         | metric.
    
       - | Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types.
         | (`#1728 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1728>`_)
         | This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.
    
    - Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown
      (`#94 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/94>`_)
    
      Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.
    
    - The MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled
      (`#496 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/496>`_)
    
      This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is
      disallowed).
    
    - Inconsistent respondd API (`#522 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/522>`_)
    
      The current API is inconsistent and will be replaced eventually. The old API will still be supported for a while.
    
    - Frequent reboots due to out-of-memory or high load due to memory pressure on weak hardware especially in larger
      meshes (`#1243 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1243>`_)
    
      Optimizations in Gluon 2018.1 have significantly improved memory usage.
      There are still known bugs leading to unreasonably high load that we hope to
      solve in future releases.
    
    - High chance of ending in a soft-bricked state for Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X. Workaround is to
      repeat initial installation using the serial console. (`#1937 <https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/1937>`_)
