NTP Timeserver cannot be changed in Configuration UI

Known Issue: When changing the NTP timeserver in the Treon Gateway’s Configuration UI, the new setting will not be saved but the old setting remains instead.

Workaround: There are two possible ways to address the issue:
a. You can set the time manually through the Treon Gateway’s Configuration UI or via DM commands. Please not that the Treon Gateway will lose the time whenever it loses power.
b. You can set a timeserver via SSH connection to the Treon Gateway.

 

Hidden SSIDs crashes Wi-Fi scan in Configuration UI

Known Issue: If there is any hidden SSID Wi-Fi network in reach of the Treon Gateway, the Wi-Fi scan in the gateway’s Configuration UI gets stuck.

Workaround: It is not possible to set up the Wi-Fi network via the Treon Gateway’s Configuration UI, instead you need to set it up via an SSH connection.

 

Space in SSID naming causes no connect

Known Issue: When trying to connect to a Wi-Fi network with a Space character in its SSID (Service Set IDentifier) name, the Treon Gateway might not recognize the network or fail to connect in certain cases.

Workaround: Rename the Wi-Fi network SSID or create a second access point with an SSID that does not contain a Space character.

 

Configuration UI failure in Access Point Mode

Known Issue: If you set a Treon Gateway into Access Point Mode while it is already connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Configuration UI is not reachable.

Workaround: Disconnect the Wi-Fi router the Treon Gateway is connected to for the meanwhile (or disable the Treon Gateway’s Wi-Fi connection via SSH connection) and only then set the Treon Gateway into Access Point Mode.

 

Older Treon Aito Release for Gateway versions

These issues have already been fixed and only occur in older versions of the Treon Aito Release for Gateway. Please update your Treon Gateway, Treon Gateway 2 or Treon Gateway in Protective Enclosure in order to avoid these issues.

  Known Issue: If you activate a Wi-Fi network after you already have entered the Configuration UI on your Treon Gateway, it might not be recognized by the Treon Gateway.
